Mar. 28, 2008 11:02 AM   A new subdivision is planned on a tiny wedge of land adjacent to the Reach 11 Sports Complex.

The Desert View Village Planning Committee on Tuesday will vote on a request for a zoning change for the land. The meeting will be at 6:30 p.m. at the Paradise Valley Community Center.

Bill Dineen and Ridge View LLC are listed as owners of the property at the southwestern corner of 32nd Street and Deer Valley Drive, north of Loop 101 and east of Cave Creek Road.  The company wants to rezone the land to allow a 41-home development on almost 16 acres of undeveloped land.

A parcel of 400 acres that is adjacent to the Ridge View property is owned by the State Land Department, which failed to sell it at auction late last year.

The undeveloped land in the area is wedged between Loop 101 and the Reach 11 park area to the south, Pinnacle Peak Road to the north, Cave Creek Road on the west and the Desert Ridge master-planned community to the east. Currently in the area are the National Memorial Cemetery of Arizona, Holy Redeemer Catholic cemetery and the sports complex, consisting of soccer and baseball fields.

The committee also will look at a possible general plan amendment for Cave Creek and Peak View roads, in the Tatum Ranch area.

AZ Republic – Buyers can start reserving Westgate condos

Mar. 28, 2008 07:55 AM  On Saturday, developer Steve Ellman, the man behind Westgate City Center, will begin to take reservations for high-end residential towers he has showcased with a detailed model the past few months.

In the fall, work should begin on the Majestic, a 10-story tower of glass, brick and steel that will contain 181 condos. The Art Deco and warehouse-inspired units will range from 700 to 3,500 square feet, with prices ranging from $400,000 to $2 million.

The reservation period gives those interested a chance to get first choice on the units they want. The Majestic offers tower living with penthouse units on the top two floors, and townhomes on a third-floor terrace that has a garden and other amenities.


By summer, a public report should be issued that details the project and its surroundings for potential buyers. After that, buyers would have seven to 10 days to move forward with a contract, or get a refund.

The Majestic would open in about two years.

Reid Butler, president of the urban communities division of The Ellman Companies, said the project would bring “city living in Glendale and the West Valley.”

The western area of Glendale along the Loop 101 corridor is planned as a high-density, urban living area as well as a commercial center.

The Majestic would be just east of the AMC Theatres, in the midst of the larger Westgate project that includes shops, hotels, offices and nearly 20 restaurants and bars anchored by Jobing.com Arena. At build-out, Westgate should include as much as 8 million square feet of development and 2,000 residences.

Ellman also is planning a 15-story tower called Cameo, although a construction timeline has not yet been established for that project.

Other Majestic features include:

• A rooftop circle pool and party deck.

• Designer kitchens by Dacor.

• Movable walls.

• Large terraces for each tower home.

• A high-tech fitness center.

• Private underground parking for residents.

• A 20,000-square-foot Majestic Club that includes a garden-level pool and fireplace, surrounded by a bamboo retreat.
