SCOTTSDALE, Arizona (January 7, 2020) -The developers of SkySong, The ASU Scottsdale Innovation Center have filed for design approval with the City of Scottsdale for SkySong 6, which will be the largest building in the project.

A large public space will be located on the corner, with a second-story balcony overlooking the area.
