McDonald’s broke ground last week on a new 4,500-square-foot restaurant at Houghton Town Center. The less than one acre retail pad was purchased for $790,000. McDonalds will join Walmart, Discount Tire and Panda Express at the center located at 118 acre regional retail center at the southeast corner of Houghton and Old Vail Roads in the Vail area.

From the Southeast to the Northwest, McDonald’s paid $775,000 for a second retail pad at Marana Main Street project. About one year after announcing plans to be the first tenant at the 28 acre Marana Main Street project located at Sandario Road near I-10.
The 4,500-square-foot McDonald’s is expected to open this fall under the management of Tucson franchise owners, Vic and Nicole Topper.
