The new tower will join a few new buildings on a rapidly developing State Street. The nearly completed 95 State building is next at about 395 feet, followed by the 111 Main building (387 feet) and 99 West, a 375-foot condominium building. The 28-story, 420-foot Church Office Building for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the second-tallest. Salt Lake City’s skyline is about to dramatically change.
"Once delivered in late 2024, Astra Tower will offer best-in-class apartments for a city fast attracting people from across the globe." "I believe Astra Tower will be the future of apartment living in Utah," he said. Other amenities in the plan include an outdoor urban park, a spa and fitness center, a clubhouse with a chef's kitchen and a work lounge with conference rooms in areas of the building.Įd Lewis, CEO of Kensington Investment Company, said he believes that Utah's capital is turning into a "world-class city," and the new skyscraper will add to a community literally on the rise. There will also be some swanky features on three of the floors, including a "residents-only" rooftop terrace with a big-screen TV, grill and social areas on the 40th floor. The units will include studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom options, as well as two levels of "exclusive penthouse units," according to Kensington. The plan calls for 685,000 square feet of building area, which will include parking levels, retail space and 377 apartment units.
The Kensington Investment Company purchased the 0.69-acre parcel in 2018. The Astra Tower will be located on the northwest corner of 200 South and State Street, where an old fast food restaurant stood until it was torn down last year. "Astra Tower is a remarkable illustration of our city's ascension." We're experiencing unprecedented growth," said Dee Brewer, the executive vice president of the Salt Lake Chamber and executive director of the Downtown Alliance. "Salt Lake City is in ascension - economically, socially, statistically.
The skyscraper, which is expected to top out near 450 feet in height, is slated to add over 350 "luxury" apartment units to downtown Salt Lake City by the time it's completed in 2024. With the driving of a few golden shovels, Salt Lake City leaders and developers broke ground on the Astra Tower, a new 40-story building that is slated to be the state's tallest structure, during a ceremony Wednesday. Salt Lake City's skyline is about to change in a drastic way.
