Woodbury Corporation has filed a first submittal with the City of Phoenix for a Planned Unit Development that would revitalize and redevelop an aging retail plaza on 9.2 acres near the NWC of Thunderbird and Scottsdale Roads.
The request seeks to rezone site’s various commercial designations under a PUD “to allow for reinvestment and the redevelopment of the aging center into a thriving, mixed-use development with retail, restaurants, residential and services uses designed around amenity spaces and the overall pedestrian experience,” according to the submitted narrative.
The PUD request applies only to the northern portion of the site, a 16-acre plaza currently known as Scottsdale Towne Square. The project, known as “Scottsdale Town Square – Thunderbird Phase,” in intended to “create a vibrant, mixed-use center and amenity for the surrounding residents and businesses.”
This proposal marks the 12th major residential/mixed-use project in planning and development on the Phoenix side of Scottsdale Road south of Bell Road/Frank Lloyd Wright Blvd. and north of Cactus Road.
