Provo Development Tracker
What the city has actually decided, and when. Every entry carries its decision date and the neighborhood it lands in — because "there's development coming" is not information and "approved 7–0 on December 2, 2025" is.
If you are buying near an open field in Provo, the question is not whether something gets built on it. It is what has already been approved, what has been denied, and what is still moving through the process. All three are public, and all three are on the record with dates.
How to use this, and its limits. This is a dated record, not a live feed. Applications get continued, withdrawn, appealed and re-filed, and a decision listed here can be superseded the week after it was made. Before you act on any single entry, confirm its current status with Provo City — call 311, or read the Planning Commission and Council agendas directly. Nothing here is legal or investment advice.
Approved
155-acre residential development, 5450 North Canyon Road
Zone change from agricultural with critical-hillside overlay and open-space preservation to residential agricultural categories, for 75 lots and 50 townhomes. Approved by the City Council June 23, 2026. North District — this is the upper Canyon Road corridor above Riverbottoms.
Carterville split, creating the Brickyard neighborhood
The Council divided the old Carterville neighborhood along the Provo River — Carterville to the west, the new Brickyard to the east. Approved at the December 16, 2025 hearing. It took Provo from 34 neighborhoods to 35, and most maps have not caught up.
Annexation along Lakeview Parkway, 300 North to 880 North
38.79 acres annexed into the city. Approved 7–0 by the City Council December 2, 2025. Lakeview North — part of the steady westward extension of the city's buildable edge.
2230 North Station Area Plan
A plan for the quarter-mile radius around the 2230 North UVX station. Adopted by the City Council 4–1 on July 8, 2025, with zone map amendments to roughly 39 acres following. The single biggest driver of what Brickyard and Carterville become.
Residential subdivision, 3200 West Bulldog Lane
Roughly 14.26 acres rezoned from open-space preservation and recreation to single-family planned development. Approved by the City Council September 23, 2025. West District, near the new Provo High campus.
BYU Administration Building rebuild, 530 East 1230 North
Demolition and reconstruction of the Abraham O. Smoot Administration Building. Approved 9–0 by the Planning Commission January 14, 2026. University neighborhood — and the reason BYU staff have been working out of the old Wasatch Elementary building at 1080 North 900 East.
Single-family conversion, 1069 North Geneva Road
Development agreement amended from twin homes to detached single-family homes. Approved 7–0 December 2, 2025. Lakeview North.
Rivers Edge commercial building, 431 West 2310 North
A 4,500-square-foot multi-tenant commercial building in the regional shopping center zone. Approved by city staff at the April 2, 2025 administrative hearing. Northwest District.
Denied or revoked
Vesper Amphitheater concept plan, 6622 North Highway 189
Concept plan for an entertainment and hospitality development. Denied by the Planning Commission June 24, 2026. Read that precisely: a Planning Commission denial of a concept plan is not the same thing as a City Council vote on the zone change, and the city has described a Council decision as still pending. This one is not over.
26-unit townhomes, 113 & 191 North Geneva Road
Zone change on 1.32 acres from general commercial to medium-density residential. Denied 7–0 by the City Council December 2, 2025 — the same meeting that approved the Lakeview Parkway annexation, which is a useful reminder that the Council is not simply pro- or anti-density.
Dance hall permit, 1700 North State Street
Conditional use permit for a dance hall. Revoked by the Planning Commission February 12, 2025. Northwest District.
Filed or pending
Lakeview Fields, phase 2 — approximately 3000 West 2000 North
Proposed ordinance and development-agreement amendments adjusting standards and lot sizes. Provo's own listing noted it had not yet been scheduled for public hearings. Lakeview North.
35-lot subdivision, 1804 North Geneva Road
Proposed zone change from one-family residential to the Lakeview Fields special development plan. Pending. Lakeview North.
108-lot subdivision, 1340 South 1100 West
Proposed zone change for a single-family subdivision. Lakewood — one of two large residential proposals reshaping this neighborhood.
150-unit townhomes, approximately 1870 South 500 West
General plan map amendment to reclassify 12.56 acres from commercial to residential. Went to the Planning Commission on October 22, 2025. Lakewood.
5-lot subdivision, 4505 North Canyon Road
Zone change from agricultural to residential agricultural. Public hearing to be announced. North District.
Workforce housing, 1992 North Geneva Road
Six townhomes. Lakeview North.
100-unit apartment building, 2000 North Canyon Road
Zone map amendment from one-family residential to medium-density residential, on the Planning Commission agenda of November 13, 2024. Pleasant View. Confirm the current status with the city before relying on it.
Northeast Neighborhoods Plan
A general plan amendment covering Riverbottoms, North Timpview and Sherwood Hills, taken to the Planning Commission in November 2024. If you are buying in northeast Provo, this document is the one that matters most.
Where the growth actually is
Read the list above by neighborhood rather than by date and a pattern shows up immediately: almost all of the large residential approvals sit on the west and north edges of the city — Lakeview North, Lakewood, and the upper Canyon Road corridor. That is where the land is. The central grid and the bench neighborhoods see infill, ADU rules and single-lot rezones instead, which change a street slowly rather than a neighborhood quickly.
The other pattern worth naming: the densest new development is clustering around transit, not around the freeway. The 2230 North Station Area Plan is the clearest example, and it is why Brickyard exists as a separate neighborhood at all.
