The controversial 92 Ironwood apartment project near the intersection of 92nd Street and Shea Boulevard is dead for now, but it might come back in the future.
Scottsdale City Council was scheduled to vote on rezoning the 8.59 acres earmarked for the site but developer Jim Riggs requested a second continuance. Riggs’ attorney Kurt Jones pointed out the council had granted a second continuance to the developer of the Greenbelt 88 project at the corner of Hayden and Osborn roads, which council approved 5-2 on Feb. 8.
But after much discussion, Council voted to deny a second continuance and began deliberating on the rezoning.
