Ground we took from a parcel number to an open building.

Fort Pierce started in 1998 on about 190 acres of state trust land at the south end of St. George. Gilbert Jennings put it together with two other private developers, the Larkins and the Giffords. Trust Lands supplied the ground, and Dixie Escalante Regional Electric Association covered the infrastructure loans and gave businesses in the park a lower power rate.

The park now covers more than 1,400 acres, developed in partnership with the State of Utah. About 530 net acres have sold, and another 170 are improved and ready for a buyer. FedEx, UPS, Family Dollar, and Sun Roc run distribution out of it, alongside manufacturers, storage buildings, labs, and warehouses. In 2021 alone, more than 20 lots sold.

Pineview Plaza sits at 2376 East Red Cliffs Drive in St. George. It is a Class A retail and entertainment center of about 142,000 square feet, spread across several buildings, with a mix of shops, dining, and entertainment.

JMI handled the whole job: site development, utilities, parking and access, landscaping, and the buildings and tenant spaces themselves. The center was completed in October 2021. JMI has kept working there since, with additions, improvements, and remodels inside the development.

Sunset Corner sits at 1091 North Bluff Street in St. George, on the ground the family ran as a supply yard for about forty years. Trucks went in and out of that yard from early morning, hauling lumber, masonry, and concrete to builders across the region. The retail center went up in its place.

The lifestyle center was completed in February 2021 and covers about 300,000 square feet of retail, restaurant, and entertainment space, with pedestrian areas running between the buildings. JMI Property Services manages it and handles the leasing, and a hotel for the site is in early planning.

Commerce Pointe sits on 16 acres where South Bluff Street, Black Ridge Drive, and the I-15 Exit 6 interchange meet. It is a joint venture between two local families, the Laytons and the Jenningses. JMI Property Services developed and manages it, and JMI Constructors built it.

Getting from first plans to groundbreaking took more than 15 years. Most of that was work with the City of St. George and the Utah Department of Transportation on the interchange and road improvements, plus waiting out market conditions that were not right. The plans went public at the St. George Area Economic Summit, ground was broken at the start of 2020, and the project was completed in September 2024. It runs about 130,000 square feet of retail, office, restaurant, and entertainment space. Putting the tenant list together took about four years of meetings and conferences, and the 23,000 square foot office building was largely pre-leased before it went up.

Mainstreet Plaza is an office building at 20 North Main Street in downtown St. George.
