Another Huge Project Approved For North Scottsdale
Scottsdale’s City Council has greenlit Axon’s $1.3 billion corporate campus, solidifying the Scottsdale Road and Loop 101 Corridor as Arizona’s most dynamic and fast-growing area. This booming sector, known as Billion-Dollar Row, already hosts game-changing projects like the Optima McDowell Mountain, ASM’s new headquarters, and the newly approved $400 Million Banner Healthcare campus. Nearby, master-planned communities such as One Scottsdale and Cavasson add to the region’s appeal, while Mayo Clinic’s Discovery Oasis Biotech Center in North Phoenix further elevates its prominence. Together, these projects represent billions of dollars in development, reshaping Scottsdale into a national hub for innovation and luxury.
Axon’s Vision For A Futuristic Campus
Axon’s bold new campus, located at Hayden Road and Loop 101, will feature:
- A 250,000-square-foot spaceship-inspired headquarters designed for cutting-edge research and manufacturing.
- 1,900 luxury residential units, fostering a live-work-play environment.
- A hotel and seven restaurants, creating vibrant community spaces.
- Enhanced green spaces with shaded walkways, a dog park, and running paths.
The development will bring up to 18,800 new jobs annually across Arizona, including high-paying roles with an average salary of $100,500. Over a decade, Axon’s campus is projected to generate $38 billion in economic output and $366 million in tax revenue for Scottsdale.

In response, Axon revised its designs, reducing building heights and residential units while increasing green space. Scottsdale officials praised the revisions, emphasizing the project’s alignment with the city’s economic goals.
