Last month’s groundbreaking for Block 23 heralded the addition of a crucial and long-awaited amenity for Downtown Phoenix, as Arizona-based Fry’s Food Stores becomes the area’s first grocery store and is promised to be the most technologically advanced grocery store in the state. Slated for completion in 2019, RED Development’s Block 23 will also include approximately 330 apartments by StreetLights Residential; 200,000 square feet of creative office space; restaurant and retail uses; and parking both above and below grade. The project augments the Phoenix-based developer’s existing CityScape.
