The Central Glendale Redevelopment Project Area encompasses 263 acres in the heart of the City. The Project Area is generally bounded by Colorado Street to the south, Glenoaks Boulevard to the north, Central Avenue and Columbus on the western periphery and Louise Street and Maryland Avenue on the east. The Project Area is bisected by Brand Boulevard, one of the community's major thoroughfares, and the Ventura Freeway (State Route 134).

The Central Glendale Redevelopment Project Area is scheduled to sunset in 2015. The Project Area is still active despite the dissolution of the Redevelopment Agency by the passage of AB x 1 26, the Dissolution Act. The Dissolution Act changed the procedures for administering existing redevelopment projects within the Project Area, and disallows the Successor Agency (former Redevelopment Agency) to enter into new agreements or contracts.
