The site, which is at the southeast corner of 19th and Montebello Avenues, includes a Phoenix Public Library branch location and a park-and-ride station. <\/p>\n

In their submittals, developers will need to ensure they retain key transit functions, although the 794-space park-and-ride is underutilized and a portion may be used for the mixed-use project. The city is also still assessing options for a portion of the project to include affordable housing.<\/p>\n
