Tramanto Crossing Office Plaza brings medical and office space
by RaeAnne Marsh

A cluster of single-story buildings will stretch back deeply from the project’s frontage on North Valley Parkway as Tramonto Crossing Office Plaza brings 90,000 square feet of office and medical condo space to the North Phoenix community whose name it incorporates.

Approximately 53,000 square feet is available now, with the March 7 completion of Phase I. Phase 2 will soon break ground behind the first, bringing the remaining square footage online toward the end of this year.

The parcel’s eight-and-a-third acres will encompass fourteen buildings. The eight buildings in the first phase range in size from 5,661 square feet to 7,921 square feet. These are symmetrically arranged on the lot: Two side by side in front, length-wise to the street for optimum signage; two more lined up behind the first two; then a row of four, more square-shaped buildings.

Low, desert landscaping between and around the buildings is married to meandering pathways. Trees are interspersed around the buildings and planted in a tight border around the sides and rear of the property, though the fronts are less densely planted to increase the buildings’ visibility from the street.

Block construction was favored for Tramonto Crossing. With extensive windows all the way around, a predominantly smooth surface defines the buildings’ exteriors. Textural accent is provided by stacked stone columns flanking some of the building entrances and by stone blocks at the base of the columns and at the building corners.

Space may be purchased as a whole building or in units of as small as 1,289 square feet. Custom office planning and layout is available.

These are the first medical office condominiums in Tramonto, and amenity developer Voit Development Company felt would be well received in a community of approximately 5,000 residents. Tom Kimsey, vice president of Voit’s Phoenix office, reported the company received many offers from dentists and doctors interested in purchasing space following the announcement of the project.

Other attributes that attracted Voit to the property include ease of access to and from nearby Interstate 17 and its proximity to existing retail development (the nearby Albertson’s shopping center on Carefree Highway) and in development (a project across the street, anchored by Home Depot).

Access to the property is directly off of North Valley Parkway, through a driveway that leads straight down the middle of Phase I. The interior drive circles each half and is lined on both sides by parking. With most parking hugging the buildings, clients and patients may park near the office they are visiting. There is also covered, reserved parking available.

Thirty-second Place offers a second ingress/egress point, affording access from Carefree Highway and passing behind the fire station to feed directly into Tramonto Crossing at its dividing line between Phases I and II. As in Phase I, the interior drive around Phase II circles a cluster of five buildings, centered in what is roughly the rear half of the property. One lone building occupies the spot nearest this second entrance.

Building size varies more greatly in Phase II, with the range from 5,935 square feet to 8,845 square feet. And, to accommodate the lot’s irregular shape, three of the buildings are designed in a triangular shape.

Phoenix-based Valley Commercial Contractors was the general contractor for this project of Voit Development Company, which is headquartered in Newport Beach, Calif.
