For the fiscal year, which ended June 30, the board invested about $13 million in projects with $53 million in private investment, the annual report shows.
Of those projects, 13 are local bars, restaurants or retail, plus one chain restaurant.
The Moxy Hotel will be located on vacant downtown Tucson lot next door to the MLK Apartments on Fifth Avenue and immediately above the Depot Plaza parking garage downtown.Ìý

“We are proud to continue delivering meaningful economic benefits to the State of Arizona and the southern region,†board chairman Fletcher McCusker wrote in his letter to the chairman of the oversight committee as part of the annual report. “Rio Nuevo has successfully doubled the tax base of what was once a blighted, boarded up downtown.â€
The Rio Nuevo District is a municipal tax collection district and special taxing district created in 1999 by voters.
The district receives an incremental portion of state-shared funds from sales taxes collected within its boundary, which is downtown Tucson, west to a panhandle just west of Interstate 10 and east to Park Place mall, along Broadway.
After focusing on the and improvements to downtown, the board has recently turned its attention to its eastern boundaries following improvements to Broadway’s Sunshine Mile and proposed developments at Park Place.
Where the money goes
Earlier this year, the Rio Nuevo board came under fire for voting to help a national comedy club move downtown, which would have displaced two local businesses.
Some residents criticized the board for helping national companies and not doing enough to support local businesses.
De Novo Market & Tap is one of several local businesses that received financial help from the Rio Nuevo District this past fiscal year.
But the district’s financial support has mainly been for local retailers, especially bars and restaurants, to open, expand or renovate.
