Located off of the Piestewa
Freeway/State Route 51 and Northern Avenue at 7878 N. 16th Street,
CASA is transforming a 1989-built commercial property into next-generation

health and wellness to serve its tenants.

Kaleidoscope Juice has also committed to a lease to operate an on-site café and
lounge serving healthy food, coffee and juice.
“CASA is the next generation of
office space,” said Curt Kremer, Founder and Managing Partner of
Phoenix-based George Oliver.
“That begins with
flexible, modern workspace and extends into a carefully curated mix of
amenities – all with the goal of creating a working community focused on the
success and wellness of its tenants.”
