Mama’s Hawaiian Bar-B-Cue, at 850 E. Speedway, is moving because its land will be used for a new student-housing complex. But its new location will be just a block away, on the first floor of its neighbor, above.

Mama’s Hawaiian Bar-B-Cue will be moving its Speedway location a block south.

The standalone restaurant near the University of Arizona will close in May, as developers of the two Hub student-housing towers are planning a third one on the site.

Mama’s will occupy 1,570 square feet of space on the ground floor of the original Hub, a 592-bed complex at 1011 N. Tyndall Ave.

Debbie Heslop, with Volk Co., represented Core Campus Tucson I LLC, and Mama’s was represented by John Ash, of CBRE.
