As Orlando pointed out, this development looks like it's in 'no mans land' from this angle but if you looked at it from the opposite angle you would see that it is right next to the hillside neighborhood in North Salt Lake. It is 2.2 miles straight down Highway 89 to Smith's Food & Drug, 3 miles to 🞵🞵🞵🞵's Market on Orchard Drive, or 3.5 miles to Smith's Marketplace on 500 S Bountiful. Historically North Salt Lake has had some pretty ugly industrial areas (and yes there are still many there) but this development will serve as a nice gateway into the city and will hopefully start to fill in the gap between downtown and Davis County. Also, from Eaglewood you could make it downtown and into a parking garage in well under 30 minutes, even in rush hour, i speak from experience. Ever since Legacy Parkway opened the commute has not been bad at all.
Another example of development in North Salt Lake is the Foxboro development, it is primarly single family residential but there are apartments and townhomes as well. They have been trying to lure a grocery store to Redwood Road for a while now. The city has plans for the Redwood Road, Center Street intersection. This area is right off the I-215 exit and you can actually see downtown from there. I hope that development continues north and fills in the area between rose park and north salt lake.
