Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), often referred to as guest houses, casitas, or granny flats, are separate living areas that can be either fully detached structures or attached to an existing home. They have their own external entrance and typically include amenities like a kitchen, bathroom, living area, and sleeping quarters.

For renters, ADUs offer affordable housing options in neighborhoods with access to services and transit. In September of 2023, The Phoenix City Council approved new rules allowing one ADU on all single-family residential properties where yard size and other parcel characteristics permit. These rules apply to zoning districts such as R1-6, R-1-10, and others. Homeowners can now build an ADU on their property, subject to size and lot coverage limits defined by local ordinances. To start building an ADU, homeowners need to submit a building plan. The residential team reviews the plan to ensure compliance with Phoenix’s building codes. Once approved, a building permit is issued. The legalization of ADUs aims to create more affordable housing options in Phoenix. The City Council approved this measure in an 8-1 vote during a formal meeting at 200 W. Jefferson St in Phoenix, Arizona.

Brutalist architect Bennie Gonzales designed only a few multi-family properties, most notably this desert retreat for 60's American folk group The Brothers Four, naming it Los Quatros, which opened in 1968. The pool is shaped like a guitar, and it has a free-standing pool house with a sauna below. The property's many signature elements have remained on the building, including louvered exterior window screens, lighting, and custom woodwork.

Mid-Century Modern Park Paradise Condominiums is one of just 16, completely intact, Post & Beam style Garden Apartments left in Scottsdale. Now considered to be the most expensive way to build, Post & Beam architecture worked 70 years ago because it was the easiest and fastest way to build. Its popularity coined the term "multi-family housing," as the answer to the Post WWII housing crisis. Post & Beam lent itself to many different uses, but how America came to know it best was as the Motor Inn. Thanks to baseball, Scottsdale was given an additional boost to its image in the early days of Cactus League Spring Training. By the time the Hotel Valley Ho opened, several independent developers, many of them Veterans, had begun building their own 24-36 unit boutique rental properties in adjacent lots. In most cases, the on-site owner's units were built into the structure complete with check-in. Uniquely, each one opened with its own unique brand. Park Paradise was the first structure of its kind to be built in the neighborhood, and in recent years its HOA has updated its many modern amenities.
