According to Gateway Capital Development, Inc., the Gateway Village Center project is now complete, and all stores are open and fully leased.

Located on U.S. 1 just north of the entrance to Palencia, Gateway Village Center features a Circle K convenience store, 20 gas pumps and a car wash. In addition, the center includes an 18,000-square-foot retail center.

New stores and restaurants at Gateway Village include a Joint Bagel Company, CT Nails & Spa, Market Street Boutique, Whisker Lane Petique, Your Pie Craft Pizza, Christy’s Dream Gourmet Ice Cream, Cinco De Mayo Authentic Mexican restaurant and Aviles Dental Care.

New restaurants were the most requested stores by residents, according to project developer J. R. Pitcairn.

“Local residents have been enjoying breakfast items at Joint Bagel Company as well as lunch and dinner at Your Pie Pizza and Cinco De Mayo Mexican Restaurant,” he said. It’s great to see a full parking lot. Our tenants worked very hard to create businesses to serve the local residents. They are off to a good start!” 

Gateway Village Center is the latest St. Johns County development for Gateway Capital Development, Inc. Gateway is now planning another new center in the World Golf Village area along International Golf Parkway just east of I-95. The planned center will be similar to Gateway Village and will include a freestanding restaurant and 15,000 square feet of retail stores and restaurants. No timetable had been announced for the development of the new project. 

“We are just gearing up to start leasing and expect to have some announcements very soon,” said Pitcairn.

The new center at World Golf Village will be Gateway Capital Development’s seventh development in St. Johns County. Gateway Capital Development, Inc, founded in 1998 by company President J. R.
