When you think of properties in Arizona, most people probably think of desert, golf, or perhaps retirement, but what about the waterfront? That's right, the embankment. Arizona actually has a lot of seafront real estate with two of the most exciting developments, Tempe Town Lake and the Arizona Canal near the center of Scottsdale, quickly becoming hot spots.
Built on Rio Salado, 60 percent of Tempe Town Lake is intended for private development, and the rest will be stored as an open space, habitat for wildlife and parks. Condominiums in the area have access to the marina, boat, fishing and Tempe Beach Park.
This city is designed to provide a great atmosphere for its residents and hosts 50 community events throughout the year, including a free series of Sunday marina music parties, a marathon, a music festival, a community festival and fireworks. Take in a show at the new Tempe Center for the Arts or visit one of the hundreds of shops, restaurants, bars and nightclubs along Mill Avenue. The future Tempe marketplace has a slot providing 130 acres of outdoor shopping center with dining, shops and a multiplex cinema.
Ideal for outdoor enthusiasts, the beautiful lakeside trails are perfect for walking or morning walks, and if you have ever wanted to do dragon boat races or take-away canoes, local teams offer you the opportunity to do just that.
The area offers common amenities such as on-site pools, spas and fitness centers. Take stunning views of the lake and mountains from your patio, courtyard or balcony, and check out the open living spaces when you feel friendly. In fact, in addition to luxury villas, there are a number of award-winning, capital planned developments that include areas for commercial and office space so you can set up your business next door and go to work. If you work further, do not worry - these developments have easy access to Sky Harbor International Airport and Arizona State University, and with a light rail bridge your trip to downtown Phoenix is easy!
With significantly less water, but no less a buzz, this is a development along the Arizona canal near downtown Scottsdale. This renaissance of the embankment brings with it a renaissance in the center of the city: there is a lot of excitement around the fact that some people have charged “Renaissance Scottsdale”. As the banks of the Canal are improved, the area is quickly becoming a hot spot for walking, cycling and jogging. A number of condominiums and loft projects offer access to nearby commercial projects, and shoppers will admire one of the types of boutiques, local stores and trendy eateries. The closest championship golf courses sweeten the deal.
The residences are within walking distance of the Fashionable Square of Scottsdale and Fifth Avenue and Old Town areas. Thanks to two pedestrian bridges and free maintenance of trolleybuses in the center of Scottsdale, traveling around the city has never been easier - you will love freedom.
So, you have it - two of the most popular quays of Arizona. Tempe Town Lake and the Arizona Canal near the center of Scottsdale are great options for people who want to enjoy the urban lifestyle without the responsibilities of traditional home ownership. These designs are ideal for professionals, empty nests and anyone who loves being outside, or just wants to enjoy the view.
