Copper Residences would replace the nine-hole Mesquite course at Westin Kierland with up to 494 residential or hotel units across about 72 acres north and south of Greenway Parkway. Phoenix lists the rezoning application as active; it has not been adopted. The project team lists a Paradise Valley Village Planning Committee recommendation meeting for November 2, 2026, at 6 p.m. in the Paradise Valley Community Center’s multipurpose room, 17402 N. 40th Street. The proposal retains the Ironwood and Acacia courses as 18 holes. Kierland Community Alliance opposes the plan, citing open-space and traffic concerns. The village recommendation is an advisory step, not final city approval; check the city’s meeting notice before attending.
