Major Changes Coming to Warner and Ellsworth in Mesa

The corner of Warner and Ellsworth Roads is about to look much different in the future, with a new Starbucks coming soon.

Earlier this summer, East Valley Now reported that Starbucks will open new locations on the southwest corner of Warner and Ellsworth. The developer’s plan includes building four pads along Ellsworth Road. The first pad, where Starbucks will be located, will be just south of Warner on Ellsworth. Two additional pads will be built further south, with the fourth pad designated for a two-lane Chick-fil-A. There’s no timeline for these openings. This will be a great site for Starbucks, with more developments planned for the area.

Novva Data Centers, a state-of-the-art data center company providing purpose-built facilities, recently announced plans to build a 300MW data center campus on 160 acres of land outside of the 202 loop at the northwest corner of Ellsworth and Warner roads, according to a press release . Novva acquired the acreage via a state land auction in August 2023. The campus is Novva’s sixth site and first entry into Arizona. The data center provider will invest over $3 billion to build the campus in two phases over the next decade. Novva predicts the project will take 10 million human hours to construct, and the first phase, with 96 Megawatts of Critical IT Load, will launch in late 2026.
