SCOTTSDALE CONFERENCE RESORT
SCOTTSDALE, AZ
An existing 1957 conference center was “tired” and in need of renovation and mechanical upgrades to achieve AAA’s four-star rating.
Looking to the region’s cultural antecedents, inspiration came from the “hacienda”—a self-sufficient estate of luxury destined for the handful of people in the circle of the patrón.
The renovation includes 326 sleeping rooms, two restaurants, a media center, a bar, 50 conference/meeting rooms, outdoor pools/gathering areas, a new central air conditioning chiller and other mechanical plant. Using a number of coordinated construction phases, the facility remains operational during the entire construction process.
