A small retirement neighborhood of single-family homes located within the larger multi-generational master-planned community of Ahwatukee Foothills.

The Ahwatukee Recreation Center opened its doors in 1974 to serve the retirement area of a community developed by Presley Company of Arizona. Presley had the concept of a separate retirement area within a typical community.

The goal of the ARC was, and still is, to provide recreation and socialization for the members who have spent their working lives raising families and earning a living. Retirement is an exciting active time to experience and learn hobbies and enjoy activities for which we previously had little time. Physical and mental activity provide meaning and purpose in our golden years.
