Medistar was selected by the City of Phoenix via RFP to develop and activate Central Station in downtown Phoenix. Central Station is a dynamic one-million-SF mixed-use development designed to help address the City of Phoenix’s transit and housing needs and enhance the overall urban experience. Central Station is adjacent to Civic Space Park and Arizona State University’s Downtown Phoenix Campus. The buildings were designed to merge seamlessly with the existing transit station to create a bustling urban hub. Central Station consists of two residential towers—one 22-story building providing fully-furnished student housing with 655 beds and one 33-story building with 362 unfurnished residential units. The project also features retail space, flexible creative office space, and two levels of below-grade parking. Central Station broke ground in April 2022 and is scheduled for delivery in the fourth quarter 2024. Central Station is a public-private partnership (P3) with Developers, Partners and Stakeholders including City of Phoenix, Medistar, GMH Communities, CBRE Investment Management, Multistudio, Layton Construction and Fulcrum.

“Central Station will be a vibrant, pedestrian-friendly addition to downtown Phoenix with its densely landscaped pathways,” said Monzer Hourani, CEO of Medistar. “Its connection to Civic Space Park will provide another amenity bringing people together to experience events, dining, music and green space.”
