A Current Regional Initiative
24th At Camelback is a mixed-use project located at the southwest corner of 24th Street and Camelback Road, one of the most dynamic corners in Phoenix’s Biltmore area. The 10-acre site, has been planned to complement the surrounding streetscape and provide tenants with dramatic views, has been developed in phases. Hines completed the first phase in June 2000. The second phase, a 208-unit condominium named Optima Biltmore Towers, was developed by Chicago-based Optima and opened in 2006. Pickard Chilton of New Haven, who designed the first office building, will also design the second. The design, while not identical to the Phase I building, will include sweeping horizontal planes, powerful geometry and careful attention to detail. The new building will include ground-floor retail space and a 1,040-space parking structure.
