Boxwell Homes Office, 1705 E. Griswold Road

Located at 1705 E. Griswold Road in Phoenix, this project includes a custom home developer’s 9,500-square-foot office on a 1.12-acre infill parcel.

The low-scale office will share access to 17th Street with a self-storage facility fronting Northern Avenue, reducing curb cuts and traffic impacts. A second access on Griswold is restricted to emergency vehicles to discourage traffic through the adjacent low-density residential neighborhood.

WMB obtained rezoning from R1-6 to R-O to allow development of the office building, approved on September 3, 2025. A zoning adjustment variance to allow access from the office to a local street was approved on January 8, 2026.

WMB worked closely with the neighborhood to review and address concerns about traffic impacts, including several meetings and discussions with area residents and other impacted parties. After a split vote from the village planning committee, the City Council unanimously approved the rezoning request.
