Howard Hughes Holdings wants to build a 339-unit apartment complex in Summerlin, west of Las Vegas.
The Texas-based developer has filed plans to build the mixed-use development near a Whole Foods-anchored shopping center at Town Center Drive and Sahara Avenue in Downtown Summerlin, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported.
The Clark County Commission is expected to review the design of the project at a meeting next month. The address and construction timeline of the proposed apartment complex were not disclosed.
Plans call for two five-story buildings with 339 apartments above 15,000 square feet of shops and restaurants.
The four-acre project will include a pool, spa, fitness center, barbecue area, bike storage, charging for electric vehicles and courtyards, according to the Review-Journal. The gray and white buildings will have large windows and inset balconies, according to renderings.
The complex will sit within a 37.6-acre site owned by Howard Hughes Holdings. It’s not clear if the developer has filed plans to develop the remaining land.
Howard Hughes Holdings, formerly the Howard Hughes Corporation., was founded in 2010 as a spinoff of General Growth Properties, which had filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. The firm has six master planned communities, including a 22,500-acre community in Summerlin, west of Las Vegas.
Summerlin, owned by Howard Hughes Holdings, was named after Jean Amelia Summerlin, the grandmother of billionaire developer Howard Hughes.
In May, Howard Hughes posted a $52.5 million loss, which it blamed on fewer master-planned community land sales, lower sales at a Nevada resort community and expenses from its Seaport Entertainment spinoff.
In March, the developer and Sony Pictures Entertainment were approved to build a $1.8 billion, 31-acre production studio in Summerlin
