Hotel and Mixed Use Development Opportunity in Tempe, Arizona
BISWIRE/July 8, 2024 — The City of Tempe is seeking a developer to build housing, a boutique hotel, and a new event space in downtown Tempe.
The historic 1888 Hackett House at Fourth Street and Mill Avenue is one of Tempe’s iconic buildings. Setting aside and protecting the house, the City is issuing a Request for Proposals to find creative ideas to transform the remaining property into residential units and an amenities-focused hotel. The project is zoned for mixed-use/65 dwelling units per acre.
The RFP is for a long-term ground lease, not a sale of the property. Hackett House must remain intact as part of any agreement.
The City of Tempe is located in the heart of the Greater Phoenix Metropolitan Area, within minutes of Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. It is home to Arizona State University — the nation's largest university, Tempe Town Lake and historic Mill Avenue.
Those interested should apply at https://tempe-gov.bonfirehub.com before Aug. 20. For questions, please contact Tempe Economic Development Deputy Director April_Kroner@tempe.gov at 480-815-5938.
