After decades of planning and about 18 months of construction, San Ramon finally has a central community gathering place as the long-anticipated City Center in Bishop Ranch is officially open for business.
The new retail and entertainment hub by Bishop Ranch owner Sunset Development Company consists of 300,000 square feet for about 70 stores, several restaurants and a luxury movie theater around a 1-acre square along Bollinger Canyon Road just east of Interstate 680.
Officially open for business as of Nov. 8, City Center saw more of a soft opening as many of its shops and restaurants are not yet available for shoppers to peruse. A variety of shops and restaurants will begin opening through the holiday season, with the majority of tenants being available by the beginning of 2019.
