Residential Towers

Special Report

In spite of the credit crunch that is currently sweeping the single-family residential markets, high-rise condo projects are rising as fast as ever in the Southwest.

While single-family homes sit on the market unsold, developers have apparently found a loophole in high-rise condominium projects, which buyers are still snapping up.

This special report takes a look at the challenges of designing and constructing high rise residential towers, from the Centerpoint Condominiums rising 30 stories in Tempe to the Cosmopolitan’s massive underground foundation on the Las Vegas Strip.

We also examine several projects still in planning, including new towers in the growing residential hotspot of downtown Las Vegas and the rebirth of Tempe’s Hayden Flour Mill, being developed by the same builder as Centerpoint.
