Cave Creek Road near this location (around the intersection with Loop 101/SR-101) sees high daily traffic, supporting the listing's claim of a "high traffic area." Recent data indicates an average annual daily traffic (AADT) of approximately 90,000-96,000 vehicles, making it suitable for businesses relying on visibility and foot traffic.
C-2 Zoning: Allowed Uses and Flexibility
Phoenix's C-2 zoning (Intermediate Commercial) is designed for a wide range of commercial activities, with many uses permitted outright or via a use permit. It emphasizes flexibility for businesses while requiring most operations to occur within enclosed buildings (except where specified). This aligns with the listing's highlights of "tremendous flexibility" for various options.
Key sections from Phoenix Zoning Ordinance Section 623:
Permitted Uses (outright allowed, including all uses from lower-density districts like C-1, R-3, R-4, R-5 for residential components):
Retail sales (e.g., antiques, architects' supplies, automobile parts, building materials, clothing, florists).
Offices and professional services (e.g., contractors' offices, dental labs, engravers).
Automotive-related (e.g., auto parts sales, seat covers/trim shops, rental with limitations).
Wholesale and storage (e.g., beverages, chemicals, dry goods, frozen foods, furniture repair/refinishing).
Multi-family residential (permitted as in R-3/R-4 districts, including apartments).
Educational and care facilities (e.g., schools, daycaresoften as accessory or with conditions).
Warehousing/flex space (e.g., bank vault storage, cleaning plants, contractors' supplies).
Other: Assembly halls, bowling alleys, car washes, family game centers, medical labs.
Uses Requiring Use Permits (conditional approval needed, often with site-specific reviews):
Auctioneers' auditoriums, bus terminals, exhibition halls.
Adult-oriented businesses (with strict location restrictions).
Outdoor activities or larger assembly halls (25,000 sq ft).
Compressed natural gas sales at service stations.
Certain manufacturing or processing (e.g., bakers' goods, bookbinders).
Accessory Uses (allowed secondary to primary uses):
Massage therapy in beauty shops.
Blood banks/plasma centers accessory to hospitals.
Outdoor dining or events (with permits in some cases).
Restrictions:
Most uses and storage must be within closed buildings.
No on-site maintenance/fueling for certain operations (e.g., auto rentals, bus terminals).
Distance requirements for sensitive uses (e.g., adult businesses must be 500-1,320 feet from schools, parks, residential zones).
Environmental/safety standards (e.g., non-combustible cleaning agents, no bottling for beverages).
Residential uses are permitted but must comply with multi-family standards from lower districts.
The suggested uses in the listing (self-storage, retail, school, daycare, automotive, residential multi-family, office, flex warehouse) are generally permitted or allowable with a use permit under C-2, confirming the "desirable" zoning claim.
Development Potential and Considerations
This lot's rarity as one of the few vacant parcels on Cave Creek Road, combined with mountain views and proximity to highways, positions it well for commercial or mixed-use development. High traffic could benefit retail or service-oriented businesses, while C-2's flexibility supports the listed options.
