1 CHIPMAN-PETERSEN +
CUTLER BUILDING

411-415 SOUTH MILL AVENUE

The original Petersen Building was constructed in 1898 by Tempe
pioneer Niels Petersen, primarily for use as a U.S. Armory. It was home
to various offices, businesses and restaurants over the years and was
listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. An extensive
rehabilitation was completed in 1983, but was completely destroyed by
fire in December 1990. A new 9500 square-foot building, designed to
recall the forms, materials and openings of the original 2-story structure,
was completed in 1992.

The adjoining 6,120 square-foot Cutler Building, completed in 1983, was
designed to be compatible with scale, materials and proportions of the
Petersen and other nearby buildings. Income derived from this new
eonstruction offset costs of rehabilitating the Petersen Building. The two
Structures occupy a 0.138-acre site.

public role: City acquisition and assembly of land, relocation of owner occupants,
tenants and businesses, provided a site for construction of the new Cutler building
and made historic rehabilitation possible. The City also provides the parking
necessary for the rehabilitation project.

Z MILL AVENUE SHOPS
414 SOUTH MILL AVENUE

Begun as an historic rehabilitation project, structural failures during
construction necessitated a new approach. Historically-compatible 2-
story structures, reminiscent of San Francisco's Gihardelli Square, were
grouped around a courtyard featuring a fountain, gazebo and multiple

level changes, while retaining nearly continuous retail street frontage.
The Mill Avenue Shops contain 31,025 square feet of specialty
retail/restaurant and office space on a 0.56-acre infill site. This project
was among the first to participate in the federally-supported
redevelopment program.

Completed in 1978, the project was “just a bit ahead of its time,"
according to architect/developer Michael Goodwin, FAIA. Over the years,
it has served as an "incubator" to many new enterprises which later
moved on to larger quarters. While that process continues, the Mill
Avenue Shops is also home to destination restaurants and _ long-
established businesses and professional offices.

public role: Public acquisition of land and relocation of owner occupants, tenants, and
businesses; City provision of sufficient parking to make the greater intensity possible

3 MOUNTAIN BELL (QWEST) FACILITY

33 WEST FIFTH STREET

This project was originally constructed by Mountain Bell in 1959, as a
4800 square-foot, windowless, uninhabited service facility containing
telecommunications equipment. Following additions in 1967 and 1970, a
major addition and remodeling, completed in 4978, integrated this
utilitarian structure and 0.45-acre site into the downtown context.
Normally exempt from municipal requirements, Mountain Bell and Qwest
have consented to additional improvements to their standard “plain box"
solution, in recognition of the developing character of the area. Further
renovations and an addition have recently been implemented by Qwest.

public role: Design Review process encouraged an historic-compatible approach and
the inclusion of pedestrian-friendly planters and brick elements

4 FIVE M BUILDING

425 SOUTH MILL AVENUE

Completed in February 1979, the Five M Building provides 7,500 square
feet of leasable office/retail space, plus 19 parking spaces, on a 0.28 acre
site. The project was one of the first redevelopment projects in the area
and represents an early, successful effort to bring businesses back to the
downtown.

The contemporary architectural styling, combined with structural "jumbo"
brick, allowed the building to blend with the historic setting, yet
differentiate itself from it. The building addresses the street frontage with
retail space, yet provides a small plaza, overhangs and other pedestrian
amenities.

public role: City acquisition and assembly of vacant land; provision of
additional parking sufficient to meet project requirements.

with restaurant, residential, office and worship facilities all located on the
1 0-acre site. One- and two-story buildings define courtyards, address
the street frontage and are designed to reflect traditional Islamic
architecture. The initial project was completed in 4984; subsequent
minor additions expanded the worship center.

6 TEMPE MISSION PALMS HOTEL

60 EAST FIFTH STREET

The four story, 303-room hotel contains approximately 300,000 square
feet of space on a 9.0-acre site. Parking is provided on-site and in the
adjacent, City-owned structure. Guest rooms, two restaurants, two
lounges, shops, a pool, Jacuzzi, tennis court and 22,000 square-feet of
meeting/event space are grouped around a lush courtyard. The structure
has been designed to compliment the downtown environment and evoke
southwestern architectural themes in a contemporary fashion.

With its downtown location and proximity to Arizona State University, the
Mission Palms Hotel has become a popular conference and meeting site,
as well as a place to gather for pre- and post-game festivities. Expansion
to 500-600 rooms with 60,000 - 100,000 square-feet of meeting space is
currently in the exploratory stages.

Initial construction, including the "off-Mill" allee and fountains, was
completed in 1985, with a major renovation and expansion in 1994. The
project received a Tempe Beautification Award of Distinction in 1995.

public role: City acquisition and assembly of land, relocation of owner occupants,
tenants, and businesses; City also financed a pedestrian plaza between the hotel and
the historic buildings fronting on Mill Avenue (plaza was developed from a utility
easement and alley right-of-way)

7 HAYDEN SQUARE
PHASES I-11 + FUTURE

51 WEST 3RD STREET /
350 SOUTH MILL AVENUE

Completed in 1986, Hayden Square is the first large-scale, horizontal
mixed-use redevelopment project in the downtown. It is designed to
provide a total environment, combining working, living, dining,
entertainment and shopping in a single setting. New construction is in
harmony, aesthetically and functionally, with adjacent historic properties.
Hayden Square is an exciting destination, ideally located in the heart of
downtown Tempe. It helps create an urban environment that is
unequalled in the Valley or State.

400,000 square feet of retail/restaurant and commercial office space are
provided, along with 118 residential units, on a 7.5-acre site. The
condominiums are constructed on a landscaped deck over the parking
area. The project includes public art and a large plaza/amphitheater for
pedestrian-oriented activities. It received a Tempe Beautification Award
of Honor in 1987.

public role: City acquisition and assembly of land and relocation of owner occupants,
tenants, and businesses, utilizing federal CDBG funds. Property sold to developer at
reduced cost in exchange for construction of public amenities.

8 UNIVERSITY TOWERS +
TOWERS CENTER

529 SOUTH FOREST AVENUE +
580 SOUTH COLLEGE AVENUE

This mixed-use project contains 172,176 square feet of residential space,
a 340-space parking structure and a 6,500 square-foot commercial
complex, all on a 2.44 acre site. The first phase of the project, completed
in 1986, consists of two 8-story towers, each accessed from an enclosed
courtyard, and the 4-story parking garage. These towers include 184
dormitory suites with a 700-resident capacity, a community study area,
swimming pool, Jacuzzi, and other amenities. An office/retail component
occupies the first floor of the north tower. The commercial complex,
completed in 1987, was the second phase and includes restaurants and
retail space. The facility is a contemporary-styled construction of
concrete block with a stucco finish.

The Towers is now owned by Arizona State University and provides
student housing, plus related office uses.

public role: The entire project was developed and funded through the private sector.

9 POLICE/COURTS COMPLEX +
SINGLE POINT OF ENTRY

420-140 EAST FIFTH STREET

Completed in 1988, the current Police/Courts Complex replaced the old
facility which had been adapted into a former grocer's offices and
warehouse on a 9.47-acre site. The complex contains Tempe's Municipal
Courts, Police Administration and Patrol, Jail and Attorney's offices. A
major design concept was to visually tie the new 72,772 square-foot
structure to the award-winning Municipal Building across the street. This
was accomplished through the use of related geometries and similar
building materials. To differentiate functional areas, precast exposed
aggregate concrete panels were used for the Police wing and a
prefinished metal and glass curtain wall was utilized for the Courts facility.
A 372-space parking structure, shared with the Mission Palms Hotel,
completed the initial project.

Subsequent renovations have enhanced the City’s ability to protect and
serve its citizens. A new, 3200 square-foot "Single Point of Entry"
addition is currently under construction and will improve circulation and
security for the facility - an integral part of the Harry E. Mitchell
Government Complex.

public role: City acquired the land and structures prior to redevelopment and has funded
all improvements through its capital improvement program

developer: City of Tempe

TEMPE PERFORMING ARTS CENTER

132 EAST SIXTH STREET

Not to be confused with Tempe Center for the Arts, currently under
construction, this project contains 22,390 square feet of office, studio,
shop, storage, rehearsal and performance space, located on a 1.02-acre
site. The Tempe Performing Arts Center provides a temporary home for
Childsplay and the Tempe Little Theatre. The 200-seat, black-box theater
allows for flexible stage settings, which can range from theater-in-the-
round to formal proscenium productions.

The Center is designed in two parts, with some office functions located in
a one-story portion facing the sidewalk, and performance/support spaces,
as well as additional offices, in a two-story (with basement) structure.
The two building masses are separated by a breezeway which is shaded
by a 2-1/2-story canopy, supported by open metal frame "upside-down
pyramids" resting on metal obelisks with surrounding, artist-designed
benches.

Upon completion of the new center, the performance space in this facility
will be converted to City offices and other uses. Part of the Harry E.
Mitchell Government Center, the project was completed in 1990 and
received a Tempe Beautification Award of Merit in 1991.

11 525 BUILDING

525 SOUTH MILL AVENUE

This 51,000 square foot mixed-use building occupies a 0.77 acre site and
provides approximately 10,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space
and 41,000 square feet of municipal office. Designed to compliment
nearby historic structures, materials include jumbo brick, concrete
wainscot and exposed steel lintels and canopies. An ATM kiosk was
sensitively added to the Sixth Street facade in 2002.

The project replaced the former Western Savings branch, designed by
William Cody and Alan Daley in 1962. Although a fine piece of modern
architecture, the building entry and public space were removed from
street level and the low floor-to-ceiling heights were not conducive to
rehabilitation. The mix of retail/restaurant and municipal uses afforded by
the new structure contributes to the pedestrian atmosphere and sense of
place that is Mill Avenue, while providing needed space for City offices
and services at no cost to the taxpayers.

The project received a 1996 Tempe Beautification Award of Distinction.

public role: City financed acquisition and construction and occupies upper floors, plus
rear portion of first floor; Mill Avenue frontage is leased to retail (Urban Outfitters) and
restaurant (My Big Fat Greek Restaurant). Lease revenue pays debt service and
operating costs for entire building.

12 UNITED STATES POST OFFICE
DOWNTOWN TEMPE BRANCH

500 SOUTH MILL AVENUE

The project was a compete renovation of the existing 1950's building on
its 0.58-acre site. The Mill Avenue entry was recessed to create a
forecourt, conducive to gathering and socialization. Materials and forms
were chosen to compliment the historic context. The postal service's
decision to retain their downtown branch was significant to the
downtown's role as the symbolic and social heart of the community. A
postal retail area and display windows were included in the 9600 square-
foot structure.

13 GORDON BIERSCH BUILDING

420 SOUTH MILL AVENUE

This intricately detailed two-story building exemplifies the successful
integration of a contemporary structure into an historic, pedestrian-
oriented context. Completed in 1998, the "Neo-Victorian" - styled Gordon
Biersch Building provides 19,117 square feet of retail and restaurant
space on the 0.18-acre site.

A prominent feature of the building is its large balconies, suitable for
outdoor dining. The balconies, supported by detailed brick piers and
defined by ornate, yet contemporary, metal railings, add to the festive
downtown atmosphere. Another recognizable architectural feature is its
flat-topped corner turret. The project received a Tempe Beautification
Award of Distinction in 1999.

14 ELLINGSON WAREHOUSE (7 TEJAS)

20 WEST SIXTH STREET

The Ellingson Warehouse (later known as Hick's Machine Shop) was
originally built in 1909 at the northwest corner of Seventh Street and
Maple Avenue. The brick walls, pitched metal roof and stepped gable
parapets of the handsome edifice served as inspiration for the
architectural design of Centerpoint Phase |. Slated for rehabilitation as
part of the Centerpoint project, the warehouse was destroyed by fire in
1987. Bricks were salvaged, drawings and photos consulted and the
building reconstructed one block to the north, on a 0.75-acre site at Sixth
and Maple.

The reconstruction/relocation, completed in 1999, allowed for a slight
enlargement to 7,559 square feet and conversion to restaurant use, plus
the addition of an outdoor dining patio. The project received a Tempe
Beautification Award of Merit in 2000.

15 STUDIOS 5C

502 SOUTH COLLEGE AVENUE

The 19,129 square-foot building is an urban space reminiscent of the
industrial loft conversions found in many metropolitan areas. Many of the
characteristic elements - high ceilings, industrial-style windows, exposed
structural and mechanical members, bare masonry walls and concrete
floors - were incorporated into the modern structure. The building creates
a dynamic environment on a compact 0.28-acre site, encompassing
offices for creative professionals, a restaurant, executive suites, a parking
garage and an interim transit center for the City.

Each floor is uniquely designed. The ground level houses retail
businesses, a restaurant and parking. The second level consists of 2-
story studio lofts, each with its own mezzanine. Flexible design allows
lofts to be configured from 1875 to 2500 SF, or larger, if combined with
another unit. The penthouse level features "e-suite" offices surrounded
by a garden terrace. Individual suites range in size, starting at 140 SF
and include shared use of support facilities.

The project was completed in 2001 and received a 2003 Tempe
Beautification Award of Distinction, and a 2003 Citation Award from the
Arizona Society of the Institute of Architects.
