The Autobox Adds Another Piece To Scottsdale Airpark

Another collector-car project is moving forward in Scottsdale. This one lands inside Scottsdale Airpark, where Brick Street Development LLC is preparing its second Autobox location. The project will add roughly 30,000 square feet of private garage space in a district already shaped by aviation, business growth, new housing, & changing land use. The timing stands out. Greater Phoenix is attracting more wealth, more technology investment, & new ways of living that didn’t define “The Valley” a generation ago. The Autobox fits right into that shift.

Quick Points

• Second Autobox is coming to Scottsdale Airpark
• Plans call for 15 private garages
• Vehicle lifts can expand storage capacity
• Flexjet is building at Scottsdale Airport
• The Parque adds another nearby development story

See What The Autobox Is Building

Brick Street Development is preparing The Autobox at 14805 N. 73rd Street in Scottsdale Airpark. The project will replace an existing building with more than 30,000 square feet of collector-car space. Plans include 15 privately owned garage units plus a clubhouse. Units will range from about 1,400 to 3,700 square feet. Clear heights of 22 feet can give owners room for vehicle lifts. Demolition was expected to begin in late August 2026, with completion targeted for the second quarter of 2027. About 60% of the units had sold as the project moved toward construction.

• 15 planned garage units
• 1,400 to 3,700 square feet
• 22-foot clear heights
• Clubhouse for owners
• Air conditioning & Wi-Fi
• Optional mezzanine buildouts

One distinction matters here. This is Brick Street Development’s second Autobox location. Its first location sits about half a mile away on North 74th Street, was completed in 2020, & contains 20 garages. The new Autobox has no connection to Collector’s Garage at WestWorld, another separate collector-car project in Scottsdale.

Watch Car Collections Move Off Site

Parking changes once a buyer owns several vehicles. A condo near Scottsdale Road, Kierland, or the Airpark may work perfectly as a residence while offering limited room for a larger collection. Purchasing extra residential parking spaces can also add substantial cost. A separate car condo creates another option. Owners can use lifts to stack vehicles inside a tall garage rather than spreading the collection across individual spaces. Mezzanine space can add another layer depending on the buildout. The result is a garage designed around the cars rather than around a residential parking plan.

• Stack cars with vehicle lifts
• Keep collections outside residential parking
• Add storage above the garage floor
• Configure space around individual needs

That idea could become more relevant as attached housing grows around North Scottsdale. Your residence can stay focused on living space. The vehicle collection can have its own place nearby.

Connect It To Scottsdale Airport

Now zoom out to Scottsdale Airpark. Scottsdale Airport recorded more than 160,000 aircraft operations during 2025. The airport sits inside a business district filled with aviation companies, offices, retail uses, hotels, medical businesses, & residential development. Its economic reach extends well past the runway. Private aviation brings owners, executives, visitors, aircraft crews, & companies into the area throughout the year. That activity helps explain why land around Scottsdale Airport continues drawing investment.

• More than 160,000 annual aircraft operations
• Major corporate aviation presence
• Airpark businesses surround the runway
• Scottsdale Road sits nearby
• Loop 101 connects the wider district

A car condo inside this setting starts to make sense from another angle. Some owners may live nearby. Others may spend part of the year in Scottsdale. Private aviation users can also arrive close to where they keep a residence or vehicle collection. Those uses aren’t tied together under one project, but the geography lets them work together.

Add Flexjet To The Airpark Picture

Flexjet adds another major aviation investment to the same district. The company broke ground in May 2025 on a $36 million private terminal at Scottsdale Airport. Plans call for a 9,000-square-foot passenger terminal, 9,500 square feet of office space, & a 34,000-square-foot maintenance hangar. The site will serve Flexjet aircraft owners, guests, crews, & company operations. An underground parking component is also planned. The company initially targeted a late-2026 opening, though construction schedules can change. The scale of the project shows another level of private aviation investment arriving in Scottsdale.

• $36 million announced investment
• Private passenger terminal
• Maintenance hangar
• Office component
• Scottsdale Airport location

Flexjet & The Autobox are separate projects with different owners & different purposes. Still, their proximity matters. One adds private aviation infrastructure. The other gives collectors another way to store several vehicles inside Scottsdale Airpark.

Keep The Parque In View

The Parque could bring another large change to the area south of the Airpark. The approved mixed-use plan covers roughly 32 acres at the former CrackerJax site at 16001 N. Scottsdale Road. Plans include more than 1,200 residences, hotel rooms, commercial space, public areas, & a pedestrian friendly layout. The location places the development near Scottsdale Airport, Scottsdale Quarter, Kierland, & the wider Airpark district. Planning work has continued, while construction timing can move as the project progresses. Its scale makes it important to the broader story around Scottsdale Road.

• Roughly 32 planned acres
• More than 1,200 residences
• Hotel component
• Commercial space
• Public areas
• Scottsdale Road location

The Parque, Flexjet, & The Autobox have no shared development connection. Their relationship is geographic. Each shows a different type of investment moving into the same part of Scottsdale.

See Why Vertical Space Matters More

Greater Phoenix spent decades growing outward across open land. That pattern remains part of the metro, but established parts of Scottsdale face a different equation. Land near Scottsdale Airport, Kierland, Loop 101, & Scottsdale Road already carries substantial value. Developers have more reason to place additional usable space on each parcel. Mid-rise housing is one response. Mixed-use construction is another. Inside a car condo, lifts apply a similar idea on a much smaller scale. Instead of using more land, an owner can store another vehicle above the first one.

• Build upward where land costs rise
• Add residences on smaller sites
• Stack vehicles inside garages
• Combine uses within established districts

Scottsdale Airport also affects what can rise nearby. Aviation-related height reviews can shape development around the runway. That puts another wrinkle into how Scottsdale adds density as land becomes harder to replace.

Follow The Car Condo Pattern Across “The Valley”

The Autobox isn’t arriving by itself. Several unrelated collector-car projects are moving through Greater Phoenix. Elite Garages Scottsdale has been planned south of Mack Innovation Park near Bell Road & 91st Street. Toy Barn is working on a flagship location at Mack Innovation Park. Finish Line Auto Club has plans for a Scottsdale facility at the former Fender property. Arcadia Motor Club has also been moving forward near Thomas Road in Phoenix. Separate developers chasing the same type of buyer make this larger than one garage project.

• Autobox in Scottsdale Airpark
• Elite Garages Scottsdale
• Toy Barn at Mack Innovation Park
• Finish Line Auto Club
• Arcadia Motor Club

Collector’s Garage at WestWorld belongs in this broader conversation too. It remains a separate company, location, & project. Taken together, these developments point to growing interest in purpose-built spaces for people who own more cars than a traditional home or condo garage can easily hold.

Put Silicon Desert Into The Story

Cars aren’t creating Greater Phoenix’s economic shift. They can tell us something about it. Arizona has spent decades building the technology base now often described as Silicon Desert. Semiconductor manufacturing has become a major part of that story. Intel has operated in Arizona since 1979, while huge new chip investments across Greater Phoenix continue bringing companies, jobs, engineers, executives, suppliers, & capital into the region. The effect reaches well outside a semiconductor campus. Housing patterns change. Business districts change. So do the products built for residents with substantial assets.

• Semiconductor investment keeps expanding
• Technology jobs keep growing
• Corporate capital keeps entering Arizona
• High-income households can follow job growth

That helps explain why projects such as private aviation terminals, new condos, mixed-use districts, & collector-car garages can all make sense in Greater Phoenix at the same time. They aren’t one coordinated development story. They are signs of a metro serving a wider range of buyers than it once did.

Watch Scottsdale Become A Different Kind Of Base

The larger change becomes clearer around North Scottsdale. Private aviation sits close to major residential areas including Pinnacle Peak, Grayhawk, Optima McDowell, Portico, Atavia, Kierland, & Toll at Cavasson. Condo construction continues adding attached residences around Scottsdale Road & Loop 101. Car condos give collectors another option when a residential garage doesn’t have enough capacity. Offices, resorts, restaurants, shops, & corporate campuses fill the surrounding district. More pieces of a new Scottsdale lifestyle are landing in one concentrated area.

• Fly through Scottsdale Airport
• Own a residence nearby
• Store several cars separately
• Reach Loop 101 quickly
• Stay close to the Airpark

That won’t describe every North Scottsdale buyer. It doesn’t have to. Greater Phoenix can now support more ways of living than the traditional large-lot suburban model that defined much of its earlier growth.

Read The Autobox As One More Signal

The second Autobox gives Scottsdale another collector-car project, but the larger story stretches far beyond its garage doors. Scottsdale Airpark has a major aviation economy. Flexjet is investing $36 million in its private terminal project. The Parque could add substantial residential & commercial development nearby. Separate car-condo developers keep pursuing projects across Greater Phoenix. Technology investment keeps bringing new capital into “The Valley.” None of these developments shares one owner or one master plan.

• More private aviation investment
• More attached housing
• More collector-car storage
• More pressure on established land
• More capital entering Greater Phoenix

Greater Phoenix isn’t your grandfather’s sprawling desert metro anymore. The outward growth remains, but another version of “The Valley” is taking shape beside it. A private aircraft can arrive at Scottsdale Airport, a condo owner can live nearby, & a collector can keep several cars stacked inside a climate-controlled garage a short drive away. The second Autobox is a small project compared with the billions flowing into the region. It still tells us plenty about where Scottsdale is heading.
