On October 6, the Phoenix City Council voted unanimously to approve The Wolff Company’s rezoning and proposed development for a 278-unit luxury apartment community at the northwest corner of 34th Way and Bell Road. The site is currently occupied by the Harkins North Valley 16 movie theater. Earlier this year, the local movie theater company announced it would be closing permanently after 20 years due to cost-prohibitive upgrades.
The Wolff Company, a Valley-based, third-generation family-owned residential developer, submitted its application for the proposed luxury multi-family residential development earlier this summer. The 278-unit residential community will consist mostly of three-story residential buildings, surrounding a centralized clubhouse, pool and amenity area. Known for its amenity-rich communities and high-quality finishes, The Wolff Company incorporated a number of features into the proposed design, including a pool area, barbeques, fitness center, coworking-style workstations, exhibition kitchen, game room, sport court and dog park. The residences will feature quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, wood-style plank flooring, and in-unit washers and dryers in a mix of studio, 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, and 3-bedroom configurations.
