The land purchased by Lincoln Ventures is expected to be used to build Moontower PHX, a proposed 24-story, 460,036-square foot apartment building. The first floor will contain office and retail office components, floors two through eight will be a parking garage and floors nine-24 feature apartments. There will be 326 total units.
The project will feature market leading amenities, including a ground floor coffee to cocktails concept, co-working and conference spaces with business lounge, secure bike parking and a dog run. The rooftop pool deck boasts incredible views of downtown Phoenix, plus an aqua lounge, grills and spa. The building will also have a state-of-the-art fitness studio, including yoga and meditation room, spin studio and saunas.
