Since its opening in November 1999, Tempe Town Lake has consistently been one of the Valley’s primary development zones, thoroughly transforming a previously run-down and under-utilized area into a thriving hotspot of corporate skyscrapers, retail destinations, and mixed-use live/work/play developments to rival any of the country’s top locales.
Nearly 20 years on, construction around Town Lake shows no sign of slowing. From the areas immediately adjacent to Rio Salado Parkway to the south and Washington Street and Curry Road to the north, Tempe currently lists 29 active developments in various stages of progress, from 5KSF restaurant and tenant improvements to multi-million-square-foot mixed-use office, residential and retail sites.
