A requested stipulation change to a 2021 zoning approval could bring a new, four-story, 114-room hotel to the master-planned development area of 29th Avenue & Sonoran Desert Drive in north Phoenix.
AZBEX was the first outlet to report on the 29th & Sonoran Desert Master Plan proposal. (AZBEX; Nov. 9, 2021)
The original rezoning request for the 40-acre site included plans for 360 traditional apartments, 259 for-rent townhomes and 26KSF of commercial space, which included three restaurants with drive-thrus and a fourth use to be named later.
Current documents show the commercial component plan has been updated and now includes a Quik-Trip gas station and convenience store.
According to the DATABEX project database, the townhome component covers slightly more than 18 acres and was confirmed in March 2023 as having started construction. Its status remains listed as under construction.
