Arizona IDA

Dominium, a national affordable housing developer, with the support of the Arizona IDA, recently purchased land for three new projects in Arizona, including two in the West Valley.

Gov. Katie Hobbs and other Valley leaders attended the official grand opening of the latest affordable housing complex in Phoenix.

Salt River Flats near Broadway Road and 16th Street is home to 192 units for families who make 60% or less of the average income in the area.

Dominium, which manages over 38,000 apartments in 19 states, will create two apartment complexes on adjacent land. They’ll be available for people earning no more than 60% of the area’s median income.

Juniper Square, an age-restricted community solely for seniors, is expected to open in the spring of 2026. The 287,458-square-foot complex will have 221 apartments with 66 one-bed units, 131 two-bed units and 24 three-bed units. There will be a pool and a central courtyard with fire pits and a ramada. Inside amenities include a fitness center, theater, salon and club room.

Phoenix officials, including Mayor Kate Gallego, broke ground on an affordable housing project, Dahlia Village, in the Valley last week.

Joining Gallego was District 8 Councilwoman Kesha Hodge Washington and representatives from both the City of Phoenix Office of Housing and Ulysses Development Group.
