Mike Lafferty, president of Lafferty Development, Inc., will build 11-story Union Square on the SE corner of 12th Street and Washington in Downtown Phoenix. With a light rail station of each side of this project, Union Square will include 280 condos, public and business meeting rooms, a 175-room hotel, and street level retail. His intention is to engage the neighborhood residents and adjacent property owners to create a business district that encourages more live/work/play activity in the area. To lead the charge in accomplishing this goal, he hired “the best urban planner known to God” according to Lafferty. She is Dana Crawford, the brain behind Larimer Square and other projects in Downtown Denver. We can’t wait to see her magic in Downtown Phoenix!
