  • Revitalizing Phoenix's Inner-Ring Suburbs
    In: Urban Planning and Renewal ISBN: 978-1-53612-419-4 Editor: Maddison Wolfe © 2017 Nova Science Publishers, Inc. Chapter 4 REVITALIZING PHOENIX’S INNER-RING SUBURBS Carlos J. L. Balsas* Department of Geography and Planning, University at Albany, Albany, NY, US ABSTRACT The Phoenix metropolitan area was greatly affected by the 2007- 2008 global financial crisis. The growth rates experienced in previous decades were substantially reduced and although the impacts were felt in many societal areas, they were especially severe in the real estate sector. Many cities and towns experienced high foreclosure rates and depressed property values. Phoenix implemented a major effort to revitalize its downtown area while several inner and outer suburbs were deprived of resources and political attention, and had to rely on existing networks and community dynamism to execute their neighborhood revitalization projects. This chapter utilizes a conceptual mechanism of place, non- place and placelessness to discuss some of the most recent transformations in three Phoenix’s inner-ring suburbs: Maryvale, East Van Buren, and South Phoenix.

  • Central Ave Corridor Summary
    CCENTRALENTRAL AAVENUEVENUE CCORRIDORORRIDOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY CITY OF PHOENIX PHOENIX C OMMUNITY ALLIANCE V ALLEY SUMMARY REPORT METRO R AIL Introduction Situated in the center of the Greater Phoenix region, the Central Avenue Corridor is a major employment center that features the highest concentration of office space in the metropolitan area. In 2004, construction of a regional light rail transit (LRT) system that will serve the Corridor is scheduled to begin. The planned LRT system creates an opportunity to alter and strategically plan new commercial and residential development in the corridor,while creating a unique and vibrant live,work and play environment. On September 19, 2002, the City of Phoenix, the Phoenix Community Alliance and Valley Metro Rail held a day-long Central Avenue Corridor workshop for community leaders and real estate professionals to: • Examine development patterns and recent trends in the Corridor; • Understand the current, intermediate and long-term market challenges within the Corridor; and • Consider how light rail transit will affect future development in the Central Avenue Corridor. The workshop participants included property owners, private and institutional investors, developers, brokers, community leaders and design firms. For purposes of the workshop, the Central Avenue Corridor was defined as the area generally bounded by Camelback Road to the North, Van Buren Street to the South, 3rd Street to the East and 3rd Avenue to the West (the "Corridor"). As a follow-up to the workshop, the City and the Phoenix Community Alliance along with EDAW conducted a design exercise in the spring of 2003 to further develop, define and illustrate the mixed-use/transit oriented development concepts that were discussed at the workshop.

  • Phoenix, AZ Denver Peer Cities Analysis
    Phoenix, AZ Denver Peer Cities Analysis Presented To: Downtown Denver November 27, 2006 Partnership By: Planning Methods 1 Matt Prosser URP 5510 Jeanne Shaffer University of Colorado - Morgan Landers Denver Planning Methods 1 – Fall 2006 Downtown Denver: A Peer Cities Analysis PHOENIX, ARIZONA SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION One of youngest big United States cities, Phoenix is rapidly becoming a major urban region. The capital of Arizona, Phoenix is one of the fastest growing cities in the nation. Phoenix is now trying to deal with the realities of its massive growth as it shapes itself in the changing world. Traditionally a suburban, car oriented city, Phoenix is now trying to create an identity for a city which grew out of a nowhere. The young city is also trying to solve the problems that many other western cities have already begun to deal with. Although late in the game, Phoenix has the opportunity to learn from the mistakes and successes of other cities as it tries to create a connected regional area with a successful urban core and center in its downtown. Primarily a day-time area, downtown Phoenix has just recently begun a major effort to revitalized its downtown area and turn it into the center of focus for the City and region. Although relatively large in size, downtown Phoenix is not nearly as dense as other downtowns and lacks any sort of unifying vernacular or identity. Lacking most uses other than big business, Phoenix looks to create a diverse mixed use downtown area. Major developments projects within in the downtown aim to create a diverse economic core and successful economic community, while using the successes of industry and business downtown to create a vibrant residential and entertainment community.

  • 2014 Progress of the Biosciences in Arizona
    2014 progress of the Biosciences in Arizona advancing the biosciences and improving health outcomes A PLAN FOR HEALTH AND PROSPERITY ollowing an encouraging first decade, the state’s long-term plan to develop a F thriving bioscience base—Arizona’s Bioscience Roadmap—was updated in 2014 to extend to the year 2025, with the aspiration of Arizona becoming a global competitor and national leader in specific areas of the biosciences. The second-decade Roadmap includes numerous recommendations to further strengthen Arizona’s research infrastructure, commercialize research into products, jobs, and firms, create an entre- preneurial hub, develop and retain bio-talent, and more. The year 2014 saw progress on all fronts, punctuated by a spate of achievements involving the first of the updated Roadmap’s five goals— forming a hub of bioscience entrepreneurs and new enterprises across Arizona. In fact, the Flinn Foundation focused on this as a theme of its 2015 annual Bioscience Roadmap luncheons. During 2014, early-stage bioscience companies successfully earned funding through a number of programs tailored to attract and foster the startup entrepreneur. These included the Arizona Commerce Authority’s Arizona Innovation Challenge and AZ Fast Grant programs, the bracket-style Venture Madness competition, BioAccel’s Solutions Challenge, the Flinn Foundation’s Bioscience Entrepreneurship Program, and others. Incubators and accelerators continued to open and expand throughout the state, collaborating with cities, colleges, universities, and federal agencies to enable entrepreneurs to have the necessary space, labs, and services to grow their business. The Arizona Commerce Authority hired a bioscience portfolio manager, a new position created to serve as a statewide resource to assist startup firms in securing risk capital and obtaining needed services.
