A new Chevron gas station and Tropical Smoothie Café will be built on the southwest corner of Speedway and Main Avenue.

New businesses are planned for a long-vacant parcel of land on Tucson’s west side.

One Ten REI Main LLC and SIMI CF LLC leased 2,000 square feet to Thathi Gas LLC for the development of a Chevron gas station on the southwest corner of Speedway and Main Avenue.

An additional parcel will be used to build a Tropical Smoothie Café at the same corner.

The appeal is the location, said Jeramy Price, with Volk Co., who represented the landlord.

“It’s right off the freeway, with lots of traffic and density,” he said. “There’s a lot of demand for high-traffic pads.”
