Cheers to 10 Years: Liberty Center Marked a Decade of Community and Growth

What has changed in Liberty Township since Liberty Center opened, and how did the community celebrate its decade milestone?

Since its grand opening in October 2015, Liberty Center has grown from a promising mixed-use development into the actual heartbeat of the West Chester Liberty community. Now, as it wraps up its 10th anniversary celebrations, the center hasn’t just thrown a party — it has invited the community to reflect on a decade of growth, connection, and innovation.

From Grand Opening to Community Anchor

When Liberty Center first opened its doors, it was seen as a new kind of destination — not just for shopping, but for living, working, and gathering. Strategically positioned at 7100 Foundry Row near I-75, it quickly became a focal point for Butler County.

Over the past decade, Liberty Center has expanded to boast more than 100 retailers, restaurants, entertainment venues, and even residential spaces. Big names like Warby Parker, Lululemon, and Northstar Café joined forces with local and regional businesses to create a vibrant, walkable hub for the entire area.

In 2024, the center underwent significant enhancements — from fresh exterior updates and improved signage to a redesigned central park featuring a grand lawn, new play structures, and more walkable community spaces. It didn’t just grow — it evolved with purpose.

What Makes Liberty Center Special
