Scottsdale Office Building Turns Into Lakefront Retail Destination

A Scottsdale office building with lake access just sold for $25.5 million to Diversified Partners, who plan to turn it into a luxury retail and dining hub called Lakefront at Scottsdale. The project will preserve the office floors while reimagining the ground level for upscale restaurants, shops, and boat rentals—with city approval sought for a new boathouse. CEO Walt Brown Jr., who’s been chasing this property for four years, says demand is already soaring, with 19 letters of intent from businesses including one from Italy. Construction begins Q3 2026, with phases opening mid-2027 and later that year. Think lake-view dining, boutique fashion, and beauty spots—all designed to complement Scottsdale’s booming luxury scene.
