Larry H. Miller Real Estate has officially begun preparatory work on Phase 1 of Downtown Daybreak.

What is Downtown Daybreak?
To begin with, Downtown Daybreak is envisioned as a vibrant, mixed‑use district at the heart of the Daybreak master‑planned community. Moreover, it is designed as a place where residents, workers and visitors can seamlessly access restaurants, retail, office spaces, entertainment and open areas. In addition, all of these amenities will be supported by easy connections to trails, transit and neighborhood streets.
Why start now?
Importantly, the Southwest Quadrant continues to add residents and jobs at a rapid pace. Therefore, beginning site preparations now accelerates the delivery of essential amenities and employment opportunities closer to where growth is happening. As a result, this approach reduces long commutes and simultaneously supports healthier, more connected daily routines.
What to expect in Phase 1
Phase 1 will serve as the foundation for future development. Specifically, it includes:
- Preparatory work that sets the stage for streets, utilities and vertical construction.
- A thoughtfully planned street network focused on people first—ensuring comfortable walking and biking connections along with links to transit.
- Dedicated space for a mix of uses that will support daily life, such as dining, entertainment, employment and community‑serving retail.
Editor’s note (2023): Following this announcement, a formal groundbreaking for Phase 1 was held, which marked the beginning of vertical construction milestones.
Community benefits
Altogether, the project is expected to provide significant community benefits. For example, residents will gain:
- Closer‑to‑home access to jobs, services and entertainment for Daybreak residents and the broader region.
- Active transportation choices that make it easier to walk or bike for everyday trips.
- Improved regional connectivity thanks to nearby transit and a well‑designed street grid for both local and regional access.
