Be sure to ask the various businesses if they have rewards programs to save at your most favorite establishments.

The pool has been dug out, filled with grass and seating. There is a Mothership Coffee shop and each room is converted into a small local shop with local craft items, bakery goods, plants, and jewelry stores. I love the venue. For me, there wasn't anything so special that I would feel the need to come back and shop, but the venue itself is special and worth a visit, especially if you've never been. I came down for the Area 702, alien-themed night market. It promised unique booths and food with an alien theme. Other than the antenna headbands that they passed out to the first 50 people, I didn't see anything that related to the alien theme. Scratch that, there was a large green blow up client parked outside of Fergusons Downtown, but that was the extent of it. The venue was, sadly, just one small block of booths. I had come planning on wandering blocks of cool things to see and explore and was done in under 30 minutes. Nothing so special that I would shout out and recommend to others to come back. It would have been better, I think, if it were a bit bigger and had more vendors participating.

Since 2005 I have visited the Paseo Verde Plaza several times. Whether it was part of an urban hike…read moreor a car stop, I have been no stranger to this Green Valley Ranch shopping center. During my yelping years since February 2011, I had reviewed some of its businesses including Smiths, China Go Go, Starbucks (out of business) and McDonald's with the contiguous trails.       The Paseo Verde Plaza is a Smith's-anchored shopping center that includes China Go Go, Fantastic Sam's, Southwest Medical, Port of Subs, Chase Bank, pet supply store, and other businesses. It sits off one of the most peaceful Interstate 215 exits and is in the picturesque community of Green Valley Ranch.    I appreciate the charmingly landscaped grounds and the extraordinarily spotless condition of the shopping center that looks much newer than its twenty plus years of existence. The landscaping incorporates wide setbacks of golf course green grass interspersed with palm trees that distance it from Valle Verde Drive. At the southeast corner there is a very serene outdoor patio that bridges the shopping center to the Green Valley Ranch community and trail system. Up until the time that the Starbucks abutting the Plaza closed in 2020, I delighted in hours here reading and writing under the Nevada sunshine in the company of a statutory turtle and hippo.   Moreover, I appreciate its connectivity to the outdoors. This is the only Southern Nevada shopping center that I know of that is connected to three trails. It is connected to the I-215 Eastern Beltway Trail at the north and the Paseo Verde and Amargosa Trails concurrency at the south. When I hiked round-trip between Green Valley Ranch Resort on solely the Paseo Verde Trail or in conjunction with the I-215 Eastern Beltway Trail, this has been a halfway stop. Additionally it is across the street from Paseo Verde Park where I have enjoyed a few China Go Go picnics.    Another thing I like about the shopping center is that it feels like a relatively close walk to all the businesses. The shopping center is not overwhelming.    Regardless that I am a fan there are a few challenges. The parking lot is cramped. Especially when a delivery driver or vehicles lining up for the McDonald's drive thru block the main drive. A stop light at the Valle Verde exit would be beneficial. Additionally the shopping center has lost a few good businesses such as Starbucks and a breakfast restaurant.     In closing I give Paseo Verde Plaza four stars. I am a fan of a few aspects that make it an enjoyable place to visit. First is its connectivity to three paved urban trails. Second I am a fan of the landscaping and the way it blends in with the surrounding community. Third I am a fan of the general laid back vibe along with the perception of it being safe on account of the area and spotless condition. Fourth I am a fan of the fact that I can visit Smith's, restaurants, and other businesses without feeling rushed and overwhelmed. Fifth, I am a fan of the fact that I can take out Chinese food, Port of Subs, or McDonald's and within a few minutes enjoy a picnic at a shady picnic table in Paseo Verde Park. With that said, I give Paseo Verde Plaza Four Stars.

The Southernmost Shopping Center in Henderson…read more    There is currently an opportunity on Yelp to review shopping centers. Where there are an abundance of reviews on restaurants, financial centers, supermarkets, and other businesses; there is a shortage of reviews on the unifying buildings that house these businesses that we love to review. In 2021, I will rise to the challenge of reviewing shopping centers in addition to the other places that I will share. Starting off my leading review of 2021, I will review the southernmost shopping center in Henderson. It is the Anthem Highlands Shopping Center.     Taken into consideration that this is the southernmost shopping center in Henderson, it has this edge of the metropolis vibe. Before Inspirada was built a few years ago, it had an edge of civilization vibe. Although it serves the Anthem Highlands and Inspirada market area, to me it feels more like being in Utah than in the Las Vegas valley. In similar fashion to Utah it is very clean, and even scenic. Situated on the Highlands of Anthem, this center provides an eastern scenic view of the mountains. From experience this is a scenic spot to capture a sunset or sunrise while being within a few hundred feet of a supermarket or drug store.    On account of the fact that this is the southernmost shopping center in Henderson with an edge of metropolis vibe in a part of the valley that reminds me of Utah; it should be of zero surprise that I have used this shopping center as a trailhead to long distance hikes into the Nevada Power Trail, Sloan Canyon, and the trails of Inspirada.    When reviewing shopping centers, I take safety into consideration. Safety includes crime and the parking lot design. The idea that I have left my car in the large parking lot with an abundance of available spaces for hours is evidence that it is a safe parking lot in the low crime Anthem Highlands and Inspirada neighborhoods. The parking lanes and spaces themselves are wide which lessen the chances of fender benders and door dings. With the recently installed traffic signal at the Bicentennial exit, leaving the parking lot is easy.    When I use the parking lot as a trailhead it is almost guaranteed that a business or few will get my support. This leads to my next area of the review. That is the business mix. When reviewing shopping centers I am on the quest to find what I call a unicorn shopping center. This would be a shopping center with such an awesome mix of businesses that it would be the equivalent of a supercenter without an actual supercenter that provides one stop shopping. Of course shopping centers come in a variety of sizes which is sometimes like comparing apples to oranges. Regardless that this is currently the only shopping center serving Inspirada and one of two serving the Anthem Highlands, it falls short of being a regional shopping center. There are currently zero apparel, electronic, and hardliners retailers. That would be the equivalent of less than half a Supercenter. To make this review easier to read, I will discuss the businesses in the following paragraph.    The anchor store is Albertson's. A few years ago it had one of the best Kosher selections in Henderson and Las Vegas. This is the largest store in the shopping center. It offers one of the two pharmacies in the shopping center. There is also a CVS. If you need a prescription this shopping center has you covered. If you need a restaurant or coffee it also has you covered. The restaurants include New Day Cafe, China Tango, Roberto's, a Hawaiin restaurant, Pizza Hut take out, Rounders (a pad to the immediate west), Subway, Starbucks and a few others. If you need a financial transaction there is a Bank of America and Chase. Adjoining the center to the west is an animal hospital. There are other businesses that share the same sea of asphalt. In the past I have reviewed the China Tango and New Day Cafe. However, I have also had several experiences in the center's Starbuck's, Albertson's, and CVS and a few in the Bank of America and Subway.     In conclusion, Anthem Highlands Shopping Center provides the essentials for the Anthem and Inspirada communities in a scenic shopping center with an edge of the metropolis vibe in a part of the valley that reminds me of Utah. It is a shopping center where you can also pick up a breathtaking view of the sunrise and sunsets over the mountains to the east. I hope to return in the near future.

Trader Joe's…read more.. There's so many great shops here at Green Valley Plaza but yes there is one reason that I'm here and it's Trader Joe's though I did bookmark Mothership Coffee Roastery Bakery little did I know that it was just a couple doors down from Trader Joe's and there's also a Dollar Tree store was here as well so we did a quick peek in to see what they had. With lots of free parking this open air shopping complex is quite busy as many do come here for various reason I also saw Desert Art Supplies which got this crafter curious but didn't have time to check them out unfortunately but did love this location just outside of Henderson it's a bit far than I'd like but a great place for many reasons....shop, eat or just relax. Thank you!

3.5 Stars  After…read morefour months of writing 62 reviews on Minneapolis and Saint Louis, I am back home. And a shopping center that I often call home is Green Valley Parkway at the southeast corner of Sunset Road and Green Valley Parkway.   Although I never checked into the shopping center itself, there have been high check-in counts at a handful of the businesses in the center. The proceeding list names many of the shopping center's businesses along with my Yelp check-ins and ratings when applicable. This discludes my visits before Yelp and when I passed over checking in. This list is evidence that I have been to Green Valley Plaza over 123 times. Some Businesses/my check-ins/My ratings. A Cat Hospital Bank of America Big 5/ 2 check-ins/4 Stars Desert Art Supplies Dollar Tree /33 check-ins/4 Stars Dylan's Lounge/11 check-ins/4 Stars Green Valley Grocery/49 check-ins/3 Stars Green Valley Modern Dental Mothership /87 check-ins/4 Stars Nevada Cleaners/1 check-in/4 Stars Subway/52 check-ins/3 Stars Supercuts /1 check-in/3 Stars Trader Joe's /123 check-ins/4 Stars United States Post Office/Many visits. Weiss Deli/many visits/Have yet to review. The following two paragraphs discuss Green Valley Plaza's thumb's up: positives and boos: negatives. The thumb's ups:   Based on the previous graph, my conclusion is that this is a convenient one-stop shopping center where the cumulative reviews average 3.7 stars. At this time the center is 100% leased. Owing to the scarcity of stores in the vicinity of Green Valley at Warm Springs, it provides much needed services and stores to the area. Boos (Negatives)   In similar style to several shopping plazas, this one suffers from the similar challenges of a cramped parking lot and exits leading to busy thoroughfares. This parking lot is so cramped and busy that I will park by the adjacent Check City or near the Sunset Road bus stop. In my opinion, the stores facing Green Valley Parkway are a no-go parking zone. Traffic exiting onto Green Valley Parkway often creates a traffic backup blocking these parking spots. This leads to the stress and risk of exiting the center. Exiting onto Green Valley Parkway is a mess because of the one stop light and people trying to exit from businesses that are supposed to be in & out like Subway and Green Valley Grocery. Exiting onto Sunset Road is just as bad. A stop light is nonexistent. And thanks to traffic engineers eliminating a traffic lane for an underused bike lane, it is often an excruciating wait to turn right. And to safely get onto westbound Sunset Road requires a right turn on Athenian then a u-turn to turn left with the assistance of a stop light.   Panhandling is another issue. It is my observation that the Green Valley Parkway facing businesses get the majority of the panhandling. In conclusion:   Green Valley Plaza has been one of my home plazas for the past several years. In addition to providing vital business and services for locals, it also has destination ones such as Mothership, Trader Joe's, Desert Art Supplies, and Weiss Deli. With that said it is guaranteed that I will be back.

Quite a few restaurants also- Subway, China Tango, PTs Gold, Olivo Bistro, Tropical Smoothie and recently, David Clawson Restaurant. This strip mall is worth the drive because it's easy to park at and usually not very busy. And, there's a Goodwill dropoff. Other than the PTs Gold and Olivo Bistro, which both have gaming, there's probably not much going on later in the evening here. Not a fan of the 4 way stop in front of the center, or the weird traffic pattern that exists inside the center. I guess that's Anthem for you.
