I was looking through zoning permits with the City of Phoenix and LA Fitness is going in the old Target store at 7th Ave and Camelback. They're going to demolish the garage part facing 7th Ave and rehab the building. This is f*cking excellent news for that corner which is very run down. Hopefully this spurs other development along West Camelback...
It's Item #3 here.

Not entirely sure this is good news--that whole part of the plaza should be torn down and started anew. With an LRT station *right there* a better result should be expected for that corner--something mixed use, lacking surface parking, multiple stories, and built to the street.
Instead, it will be occupied by a chain that will be there forever, eliminating its future redevelopment potential.
