Habitat for Humanity Building in Vegas

The wire is reporting that the City of Las Vegas awarded seven building lots to Habitat for Humanity, which responded to a request for proposal issued by the city’s Neighborhood Service Department. Guy Amato, executive director of Habitat for Humanity Las Vegas, said Habitat for Humanity plans to build seven single family homes on the site at Lake Mead and Losee in the city’s fifth ward. Councilman Lawrence Weekly was instrumental in bringing the opportunity forward though the RFP process, Amato said.

Families are required to assist in the construction of their homes with at least 250 hours of volunteer labor from each adult in the household. Habitat for Humanity has built more than 33 homes in the Vegas Heights community over the past 15 years.

Habitat for Humanity Las Vegas is a not-for-profit organization that builds decent, affordable housing with the help of volunteer labor and donated time and materials and funds. Established in Clark County in 1991, Habitat for Humanity Las Vegas has completed 52 homes.

The Allure of New Condos

The Reno-Gazette Journal reports that vertical construction is well under way on Tower I of Allure Las Vegas and it’s right on schedule, officials said. The luxury high-rise has already grown six stories and when completed, the two 41 story towers that comprise Allure will offer 900 residential high rise units. Allure Las Vegas Tower II residences are also currently for sale and with the city-wide high-rise condo supply diminishing, they are proving to be quite a value.

Maintaining a 25-month overall construction schedule, the concrete structure is complete through the sixth floor. Once the seventh floor is poured, construction will accelerate to pouring a floor per week. When finished, Tower I will have 428 units comprised of studios, one, two and three bedroom residences, as well as tower suites and extraordinary penthouses.
