Re:	
Letter of Support for Rezoning of the Property Located at the Southwest 
Corner of 11th Street and Van Buren Street in Phoenix, Arizona (Case No. 
Z-33-23-8)
Dear Anthony: 
On behalf of the Booker T. Washington Neighborhood Association, I am submitting 
this letter of support for approval of Zoning Case No. Z-33-23-8 which will change the 
existing zoning designation of the approximately 1.73-acre site located at the southwest 
corner of 11th Street and Van Buren from Commercial C-3 District – General Commercial 
to Walkable Urban Code T5:7. 
I understand that approval of this request would facilitate the redevelopment of the 
property with a new modern hotel, of up to 100’ in height, with customary hotel amenities 
such as a business center, meeting space, fitness center, pool and limited food/beverage 
services (the “Project”).
Members of the Booker T. Washington Neighborhood Association have met with 
representatives of the Project to discuss details of the request and are collectively in 
support of the proposed rezoning. The Project facilitated by approval of the rezoning 
request will allow for the redevelopment of a long-standing underutilized Property with a 
high-quality hotel concept which will overall positively impact the neighborhood and its 
residents. 
Thank you for considering our feedback in this case. You can reach our 
organization at 602-254-9614.
Sincerely Yours,
October 05, 2023
