The Plaza is an Oasis...a verdant respite from the stark beauty of the Sonoran Desert.

As the only fully realized City Beautiful town center in the state of Arizona, anchored by a hundred year old train depot and situated around a lush central park, the historic Ajo Plaza is truly one of a kind. It is the perfect stopping place for travelers en route to Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument and the sea coast in Mexico or a fantastic getaway for those seeking a truly unique experience.

Plaza Businesses

The historic Ajo Plaza is the picturesque regional hub for commerce. With a series of Spanish Colonial Revival arches surrounding a lush central park, the Plaza is a lovely and supremely walkable main street. From freshly roasted coffee to local and regional art, the Ajo Plaza is the perfect spot to slow down, take a stroll and get to know the authentic Ajo.

Available Space

With 85,000 square feet of mixed-use space, the Ajo Plaza offers a full spectrum of commercial space: from newly re-developed “rent-ready” suites to white box space just waiting for an entrepreneur with a vision. Nowhere else will you find such a perfect intersection of fascinating history, resilient community and creative reuse.

Events

The Ajo Plaza is the heart of Ajo, and throughout the year, the Plaza plays host to a series of signature community events. From the sweetest small town Christmas celebration you’ve ever seen to a truly unique tri-national celebration of the International Day of Peace...a glance at the calendar provides a glimpse into the sorts of things that happen #OnlyinAjo.

Featured Space

There is currently a gorgeous 1,077 square foot improved retail, shop or office space available in the south business block of the Ajo Plaza. The suite is outfitted with ceramic tile flooring, high ceilings, abundant natural light and highly efficient multi-zone climate control. The suite has great visibility and curb appeal to the 2,800 vehicles that drive past daily on AZ Highway 85.

A regional market gap has been identified for a bike shop and/or outdoor recreation outfitter. Ajo is surrounded by millions of acres of pristine Sonoran Desert including a national monument, a national wildlife refuge and thousands of miles of gravel roads that are ideal for a fast-growing gravel cycling market. Hiking, biking and jeeping opportunities abound. See opportunity package for more information.
