The Soboba Band of Luiseño Indians, by way of its Soboba Economic Development Corporation, has begun construction for the Sovovatum Village, a retail center that will serve as a gateway to greet all visitors to the Soboba Casino Resort and the reservation.

Located at the southeast corner of Lake Park Drive and Soboba Road, the completed center will feature 60,000 square feet of retail space. A groundbreaking ceremony for phase one – a gas station and convenience store – was held August 13.
