Arizona Center Transforms into Urban-Contemporary Center

by Mike Hunter

Arizona Center, Phoenix’s original downtown entertainment destination, located at Third Street and Van Buren, recently completed construction on its $25 million makeover, which includes new creative office space, outdoor work stations, shopping, entertainment and casual dining. Complementing the new modern aesthetics is a new logo, website and brand identity. 

Among the numerous improvements to the one million-square-foot, multi-use center are opening up the property to surrounding streets so as to create a more integrated downtown experience, outdoor furnishings and lounge areas, and new landscape and water features. 

In addition to the completed property renovations, the first upscale select-service boutique hotel in downtown Phoenix, AC Hotel by Marriott, will break ground next month and is scheduled to be completed in the third quarter of 2020. Following the groundbreaking of the hotel will also be the beginning of construction on a new 31-story residential tower, Palm Tower.
