Diamond in the rough, this site’s location offers outstanding regional connectivity. It lies just one block from the Valley Metro Light Rail on Washington Street, providing residents with easy access to Downtown Phoenix, Tempe, and Mesa. The property is also only minutes from I‑10 and Loop 202, and a short ride from the 44th St/Washington St Light Rail Station, which connects directly to the PHX Sky Train®, offering seamless access to all Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport terminals and parking facilities.
The area is supported by strong employment fundamentals. Sky Harbor Airport and Valleywise Health Medical Center—both located within one mile—serve as major employment anchors generating consistent housing demand for workers across a range of income levels.

This gap highlights a clear opportunity and ongoing need for attainable and workforce housing in the immediate area.
With its transit‑rich location, flexible walkable‑urban zoning, major employment proximity, and strong demonstrated need for residential density, this site is exceptionally positioned for a multifamily or mixed‑use development that supports Central Phoenix’s continued growth and housing demand.
