A couple of months ago we blogged about the tremendous growth of the Scottsdale Airpark.  It was expected to hit the mark of 50,000 employees this year.  Well it has officially done so. 

As the Airpark started to develop in the 80’s it was predicted that the 50,000 mark would be hit in 2010.  It has grown to 50,450 jobs and 2,554 businesses in 22.3 million square feet, with an additional 1.9 million square feet under construction.  It is now predicted to grow to 27 million square feet and 55,000 by 2010.  The airpark is among Arizona's largest employment centers, along with downtown Phoenix and the area surrounding Sky Harbor International Airport.

There are many reasons for this fantastic growth.  Scottsdale, known as a tourist destination for its golf, shopping and dining has a great climate for business.  The infrastructure was planned for the Airpark to accommodate this growth.  Access is convenient from all parts of the Valley of the Sun via the Loop 101 freeway which skirts the airpark.  At its core of course is the Scottsdale Municipal Airport, providing excellent access for corporate employees and visitors.

I mentioned the freeway access.  This is key as employees have easy access from homes around the Phoenix area.  The Airpark can easily be reached in less than 30 minutes from the Phoenix core, West Valley cities such as Glendale and Peoria, and East Valley cities like Tempe, Mesa, Gilbert and Chandler.

Scottsdale is so much more than the “West’s Most Western Town”!
