Tucson Industrial Development Authority is buying and converting downtown real estate | Construction & Real Estate
The nonprofit Tucson Industrial Development Authority recently purchased two lots in downtown Tucson and plans to combine them with a third lot to expand business and industrial opportunities for the area. The three properties, one of which is already owned by Tucson IDA, are titled Block 174 and extend between Church Avenue and Stone Avenue north of Council Street. Parking is located near the Pima County Consolidated Justice Court, YMCA, and El Charro Cafe.
According to Tucson IDA, the nonprofit has owned the 20,350-square-foot parking lot on the northwest corner of Stone and Council for several years. The Rio Nuevo Multipurpose District decided to sell its nearby 15,100 square foot parking lot on the northeast corner of Church Avenue and Council Streets, and Tucson IDA was the “logical buyer.” Tucson IDA then decided to expand the area of the property by purchasing a second lot of approximately 6,750 square feet at 257 N. Stone Avenue that is currently an office building.
The 42,000-square-foot combined properties are divided into office / commercial / residential zones and include potential aerial rights over Ash Alley, the street that runs between the two surface parking lots. Although no specific plans have been announced, Judy Clinco, president of Tucson IDA, says the development agency “is working on a strategic vision for all of Tucson IDA’s downtown properties. We focus on creating high impact community-based projects that promise to generate resources and promote equity. “
Other nearby projects from the Rio Nuevo District include the revitalization of a 23-story tower at 1 S. Church Ave. to a hotel and offices, the renovation of the Old Pueblo Club Building at 123 S. Church to include a new restaurant, a new home for the Senior Housing Foundation on the corner of Broadway and Church, and sidewalk and street improvements on Ochoa Street between Church and Stone Avenue.
