Developer, The Dinerstein Companies of Houston is doubling down on their investment in student housing near the University of Arizona by proposing a new, 130-unit high-rise just two blocks from campus. The eight-story building, dubbed Aspire Tucson Phase II, is directly west of Aspire Tucson, a 12-story community set to open in August 2019.
The mixed-use student housing development is located in the heart of the Main Gate entertainment district and will replace the current Chase Bank site at the SWC of Park Avenue and First Street. The property is zoned C-1 and thus the height and density are appropriate for student housing near the University.
Aspire Tucson Phase II isn’t just a step up from a dormitory – from the underground parking garage to the rooftop pool, residents will find modern amenities and a sense of community within the shared living spaces. Thirteen studios, 26 two-bedroom, six three-bedroom, 46 four-bedroom, 19 five-bedroom and 20 six-bedroom units are available, with each student signing individual leases.
