Scottsdale development projects

Scottsdale is experiencing a surge of new development projects either planned or under construction.

Among the more high-profile are a $135 million Blue Sky apartments near Scottsdale Fashion Square and the Optima Sonoran Village condominium complex southeast of Camelback and 68th Street. Developers are hoping to construct a total of 5,700 apartment units in at least 18 projects citywide. Nearly two-thirds of the proposed units are downtown and along McDowell Road.



Blue Sky -- Construction is expected to start this summer on the $135 million, 13-story apartment complex on Scottsdale Road just north of Camelback Road and across from Scottsdale Fashion Square.



Mark-Taylor -- Mark-Taylor Residential Inc. is planning 536 apartment units at 74th Street and McDowell Road, the old Los Arcos site. The city in September also agreed to sell the apartment developer 3.74 acres of city-owned land nearby for the complex.



Maravilla Scottsdale --The resort-style senior community is scheduled for completion in May just west of the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess resort. Plans call for 217 residences, including 36 assisted-living units and 24 memory-care units.



Scottsdale Retail Plaza --The City Council just cleared the way for development of the new beach club in the downtown-entertainment district south of Camelback Road and east of Scottsdale Road. Plans include an indoor/outdoor pool club in the center, a building with restaurant and bar space on the western side and a three-tenant building intended for restaurant and bar use on the eastern side.



Reata Ranch -- Developer Taber Anderson wants to build up to 35 lodge units, 75 cabins, 120 casitas and 100 villas at the guest ranch, which could include stables and hiking and equestrian trails into the nearby McDowell Sonoran Preserve.



Optima Sonoran Village -- Initial site work began last fall on the 10-acre property southeast of Camelback Road and 68th Street, with the first phase of 210 units expected to be finished by September 2013. The project primarily is a condominium development, with rental units available.
