Construction for Culdesac Tempe began in 2019. The project was estimated to cost US$140 million, span Шаблон:Convert, and include 636 apartment units and Шаблон:Convert of restaurant and retail space.

The Phoenix metro area is commonly known as the capital of urban sprawl due to its status as the second-worst big city in America for walkers according to the website Walk Score. In most areas of Phoenix, residents rely heavily on personal vehicles for transportation. Culdesac eliminates the need for cars by providing most necessary services within the neighborhood and mobility benefits via partnerships with rideshare companies and public transit agencies. Cocina Chiwas restaurant, Street Corner Urban Market, and Archer's Bikes are open, and plans are in place for a coffee shop, co-working space, and additional shops on site at Culdesac Tempe. Another result of a ban on parking spaces is that there are more opportunities for green space including courtyards, gardens, and places to gather in community within the Culdesac Tempe neighborhood.

Dan Parolek is the architect working on the design plans for the community. He coined the term "missing middle housing" to describe the type of walkable, sustainable housing that Culdesac is intended to exemplify.

The company plans to expand to other locations with the goal of building on the success of "the first-ever car-free neighborhood built from scratch in the United States".
