Taylor Made--A Towering New Home for ASU Students Comes to Downtown

摘要

Taylor Place will provide almost 1,300 Arizona State University students with campus homes, and Phoenix with a vital new addition to its burgeoning downtown. Developed, operated and owned for the first 30 years by Birmingham, Ala.-based Capstone Development, the 68.3 million dollars, 366,500-sq-ft mixed-use student housing project is the first new residence hall for the downtown ASU campus. Two 12-story towers comprise the project on 1.21 acres at the northeast corner of First and Taylor streets. Erected concurrently, the cast-in-place-concrete buildings are covered by low-maintenance aluminum-composite metal panels. The top floors of both buildings are glass exteriors for a penthouse look. They're topped by Arizona-inspired copper-colored cornices. The connected street levels of both towers will include nearly 12,000 sq ft of publicly accessible retail space and an equal amount of dining space, ASU-staffed residential life offices and Capstone management offices.
