During its July 9, 2024, regular meeting, the Port of Kennewick Board of Commissioners received and unanimously approved a Letter of Interest (LOI) from Dr. Brandon Furness and Dr. Royce Barney as developers and incorporated as Cantley Vision Inc. The optometrists plan to build a two-story eye care center, retail optical shop and leasable retail space on Lot 31 at Vista Field. The Tri-Cities doctors own Columbia Point Eye Care in Richland and Columbia Point Eye Care in Kennewick.
This is the first medical facility to announce plans to locate at Vista Field. The proposed project would include a 7,000-square-foot building with dedicated medical offices, optical retail and approximately 1,500 square feet of retail tenant space. Lot 31 is located west of Crosswind Boulevard on Azure Drive. Medical is a desired use in Vista Field and creates a natural transition between future residential development and activity closer to the water feature and open-air pavilions. Port of Kennewick Commissioners directed port staff to work through the collaborative design process to bring a fully defined purchase and sale agreement to the commission in the near future. Port officials indicated they are quite pleased with this addition to the commercial space planned for Vista Field and the detail the developer’s team has taken in designing the building. Port of Kennewick town architect Matt Lambert of DPZ said, “We are encouraged that they are treating all three building elevations with care, not only the façade along Azure Drive but also the pedestrian walkway and parking lot frontage.” According to the port, with this latest proposal, nearly 40% of the phase one parcels at Vista Field are now sold or pending for residential, retail, and commercial space.
