Juhl lofts – Getting Started

Investors in downtown ventures have naturally become wary as a result of dropped projects and increase in prices. One does not know which project will be completed and which one will bite the dust. Juhl Lofts is nearing its ground breaking and demolition of existing houses on the plot is going on in right earnest. City Mark Development has this as its exciting first project in Las Vegas which will be an important part of the renaissance of downtown Las Vegas. This mid-rise, mixed-use project at Fourth Street and Bonneville Avenue is the benchmark of the changes we will see in the area’s urban landscape in the coming years. Future residents at Juhl will be just a short walk from shopping, restaurants, galleries, museums, commerce centers and world-class entertainment; truly an eclectic cultural experience!

Juhl offers the perfect housing mix to complement the development happening in the downtown area. The area is rapidly turning into the ultimate mixed-use business, residential and recreational district. The complex offers more than 100 floor plans, ranging from 600 to 2,500 square feet in one and two-story designs. The layouts are available in a variety of buildings of varying heights and facades. The 15 story contemporary glass cube offers authentic urban loft-style living. You can choose from live/work lofts, mid- and high-rise lofts, townhouses, flats and penthouses. Prices begin in the high $200,000s.

This is urban chic at its best with 10-foot floor-to-ceiling windows, full scale glass, exposed building mechanical and concrete surfaces, energy-efficient air conditioning and heating and high-speed Internet access. They build interior walls if you want them or you need not have them. According to their information studio, lofts have private balconies and are fitted with Grohe plumbing fixtures, kitchens with granite counters, maple cabinetry and stainless steel appliances. Plans for the common areas include a two-story fitness center, a landscaped rooftop courtyard with a pool and spa, a gated parking structure, and 24,000 square feet of retail.

People living in the suburbs have been attracted to the change in lifestyle Juhl offers. The revitalization of the downtown area has beckoned people from all walks of life to be a part of its energy. The transformation opens up brand new vistas to live, work and play. Juhl has a great location and its multi-level design and scale of the buildings is appealing as are the floor plans. Future residents of Juhl will have the best of all worlds with commute-free living and working and a wide choice of recreational and social amenities within the heart of downtown Las Vegas.

The ground was cleared recently and utilities were moved. The developers’ representatives look at this as an important landmark in the construction of Juhl. The next phase will be to tap the water, power, phone, gas and cable services and relocate them underground to be connected to the Juhl building site. Downtown Las Vegas will soon display the best of what it used to be in the days gone by and blend it perfectly with the finest in contemporary living.
