Hovnanian Homes has requested approval from the City of Scottsdale for a preliminary plat as the first step in plans to develop 174 new single-family homes on nearly 22 acres in the Silverstone at Pinnacle Peak community
Silverstone is the former site of the Rawhide western theme park, which opened in the 1970s. The area’s developed parcels have been extensively reworked to mitigate the impact of decades of use by the park, and the community now boasts a mixed-use of office, residential and retail uses.
