Van Buren is a commercial oriented street, but not that type.

Why not? Theres a lot of empty or underutilized lots along Van Buren that would be fine for department stores. Putting them South of Chase field means their further from most downtown residents for one.
Along Van Buren makes sense for a row of department/box stores as they could be on the bottom floor of office buildings like you traditionally saw downtown.
