There are new apartment buildings going up all over the valley lately. Some are tall and others only two to four stories high. The growth in the multi-family housing has been quite rapid.
Here are three that I recently spotted. In the first photo, there was a special event going on in the park across from the apartments. That's why there are so many people on the street. The one above must be brand new in the past two years.
This group has business space on the ground floor and condos above. This one is located right in the heart of old town Scottsdale so I'm guessing these are pretty pricey.
I've been hearing that there is a housing shortage brought on by population growth and the effects of the pandemic. I just hope that some of the new places are in the "affordable" range. I think the need for affordable housing is the greatest challenge right now.
The buildings look nice and not in need of repair. After the wife and I got married we lived in apartment for seven years. It served our purpose until we had enough money for a down payment on a house.
ReplyDeleteProviding more affordable housing is an issue here too.
ReplyDeleteThe last photo has more appeal than the other two.
ReplyDeleteVery eclectic.
ReplyDeleteI like the low rise ones best. Affordable is the issue here too, Sharon.
ReplyDeleteI like the first building. If I wanted another career, going back to affordable housing has always been in the back of my mind. It was emotionally rewarding work.
ReplyDeleteI like the first one, with those big, wide terraces. Seems like housing is in high demand in many major cities.
ReplyDeleteThey are quite attractive, regardless of the prices.
