Phoenix Rising Investments (PRI) recently celebrated the grand opening of the first Aviation Institute of Maintenance (AIM) Phoenix campus in the AMPlify Riverpoint business district. The new AIM campus is located in AMPlifyRiverpoint at 4025 S. 32^nd Street in Phoenix, just south of Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport and just four miles from South Mountain High School, which has an exploratory aviation program. AIM has entered into a partnership with South Mountain to offer dual-credit aviation maintenance programs and has an ongoing partnership with American Airlines.

“We selected this area not because it’s a four-mile drive to the airport but because the South Mountain Village is an area that we identified as a place where we could bring great opportunities,” said AIM President Joel English.

In 2022, PRI recognized AMPlify Riverpoint’s potential as an office-to-industrial redevelopment candidate due to its access to power infrastructure, good structural quality, and strategic location. Situated adjacent to high-powered overhead lines and offering direct access to the I-10 – as well as being 1½ miles from Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport – the property was an ideal choice for users who demand highly sought-out features like ample power and proximity to their workforce, or in AIM’s case, their students.
