What's Coming to Shadowood in West Boca? New Restaurants, Shops & More

If you've driven through the intersection of Glades Road and 441 lately, you've probably noticed that Shadowood doesn't look quite like the shopping center West Boca residents have known for decades.

That's intentional.

EDENS, the retail developer that acquired Shadowood Square in 2023, is in the middle of a major redevelopment of the property. The plan goes well beyond replacing a few storefronts: new retail buildings, restaurants, outdoor gathering areas, landscaping and a pedestrian promenade are all part of the transformation.

And the tenant list is starting to get interesting. Here's what West Boca residents should know.

Shadowood is getting a major redevelopment

The redevelopment covers approximately 109,887 square feet of new and renovated retail space.

The goal is to turn Shadowood into more of a walkable gathering place rather than simply a traditional shopping plaza.

EDENS' current Shadowood page says new retailers are expected to begin opening this winter, with additional openings continuing into 2027.

More Names in the Shadowood Pipeline

A recent public update from EDENS' leasing team named several additional businesses expected to be part of Shadowood's new tenant mix.

Some of Shadowood's New Era Is Already Here

Not every addition is still in the future.

Nomu Sushi & Pub focuses on sushi, sashimi, specialty rolls and Japanese pub-style dishes, along with cocktails, sake and beer.

What happened to the Shadowood movie theater?

For longtime West Boca residents, this is probably the biggest visual change. The former Shadowood movie theater was part of the area being redeveloped as EDENS reshapes the property.

The current plan calls for new retail buildings, pedestrian space and public gathering areas rather than reopening the former theater as another movie theater. For many longtime residents, losing the theater marks the end of an era — but it also creates a large amount of space for the new Shadowood development.

When will the new Shadowood open?

There will not be one single grand-opening date for the entire redevelopment. EDENS currently says new retailer openings will begin this winter and continue into 2027. Individual businesses may open at different points throughout construction.

Current opening dates are still unannounced for several of the most anticipated tenants, including Maman, J.Crew Factory and Joe & The Juice. MyWestBoca will update this page as opening dates are confirmed.

Why this matters for West Boca

Shadowood sits at one of West Boca's busiest and most recognizable intersections: Glades Road and State Road 7/441. For years it has been a practical neighborhood shopping center.

The redevelopment represents something different: an attempt to create a place where residents might stay longer for dining, coffee, fitness, shopping and outdoor gathering rather than simply running an errand and leaving. Whether that vision works will depend on how the tenant mix and public spaces ultimately come together.

But the lineup announced so far suggests Shadowood is going to look considerably different from the center longtime residents remember.
