Pima Dynamite Trailhead
2023 Crescordia Award RecipientWith over one million visitors annually, the City of Scottsdale’s McDowell Sonoran Preserve encompasses more than 30,000 acres and 225 miles of recreational trails. The Pima Dynamite Trailhead serves as a major access point to the vast network of trails and features community restrooms, an amphitheater, and indoor-outdoor meeting space. Its corten steel skin blends in with the preserve and allows the building to naturally weather while providing a gathering place for hikers, bikers, and equestrians to enjoy the beauty of the Sonoran Desert.
