Story Continued

By the early 2000s, it was clear Ryan had established itself as fulfilling a need for complete, construction and real estate management solutions in Arizona’s booming commercial real estate market. The office offered integrated construction, development and real estate management services, and their list of customers grew with projects for Del Webb, Honeywell, DMB, Dial Corp, Motorola, Avnet, ASML and Edwards Jones, among others. 

In 2001, they completed downtown Phoenix’s newest skyscraper, the Phelps Dodge Tower, now named One North Central, and moved into offices on the 13th floor. That same year, the Arizona office was recognized for the first time by NAIOP with their “General Contractor of the Year” award and was designated the “#1 Commercial Developer” by Ranking Arizona.

Today, the Arizona office has moved into a new Ryan development, 3900 Camelback, and its employees have completed millions of square feet of development and construction projects. Unisource (Tucson Electric), US General Services Administration, Maricopa County, Target and others have joined the continually growing list of customers who turn to Ryan for real estate development, construction, tenant improvements, architecture & engineering, capital markets and real estate management.

The Arizona office is not only passionate about building good relationships with its customers and subcontractors, its employees are actively weaving our values of partnership and caring into the communities we serve, with active involvement in organizations that advance development industry standards, such as NAIOP, ABA, Valley Partnership, CORENET, IREM, ULI and BOMA. 100 percent of the Southwest Office’s employees are involved in supporting local nonprofits including the Arizona Science Center, Childhelp, Brophy College Prep, Junior Achievement of Arizona, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Arizona, The Phoenix Symphony, Valley of the Sun United Way and more.

The Arizona office is honored to have received numerous awards over the years, including nine Ranking Arizona’s #1 Commercial Developer awards; a third NAIOP General Contractor of the Year award; a National Design-Build Award for development of TASER International’s headquarters in Scottsdale; Phoenix’s first Gold LEED Certification for the NCA/CASI building at ASU Research Park; and multiple Arizona Real Estate awards. The Phoenix office has either completed and/or is currently building approximately $xxx million of LEED projects, and the majority of our project managers are LEED accredited professionals.
