“We’ve had city support in the past and we expect to have continued city support,” Bade said. “We wanted a product right off Mill Avenue, off Tempe Town Lake and close to employment and ASU.”
The company recently acquired a third parcel of land, which initiated the third phase of the project. Bade expects the third phase to begin in about four to five months.
Homes in the development are expected to cost as much as $525,000.
“We’re really looking at employee-based clients and not university students,” Bade said.
Phase I of the development is expected to be completed by September or October.
The company is also finishing a project called Eclipse in Scottsdale near McDowell and Granite Reef roads. The total cost of that project was just $9 million.
