Groundbreaking Held for New Multifamily Complex Flats Arts District; Expected to Open in 2026
LAS VEGAS, NV – The official groundbreaking was held this Thursday for the $112 million Flats Arts District project, an upcoming multifamily complex that is being erected in the Las Vegas Arts District via a joint venture between CEDARst Cos. and Bridge Investment Group.
The project is being constructed at 123 West Imperial Avenue – located one block away from Main Street – and will be comprised of 311 apartment units and 5,100 square feet of retail space on the ground floor.
The property was initially purchased in January for $6 million; as an example of how property values have skyrocketed in Las Vegas over the years, the last time this plot of land was sold – back in 2011 – it went for a mere $322,000, as per Clark County property records.
In a statement, CEDARst Chief Development Officer Mark Heffron noted that the company had been wanting to get in on the Las Vegas real estate scene for some time, with the Arts District property representing the perfect opportunity to finally do so given the area’s growing economy, highly diverse businesses, and close-knit residents.
There is a far greater sense of community in Las Vegas as well,” Heffron said. “This is obvious when spending time in a vibrant and walkable neighborhood like the Arts District. The addition of professional hockey, football and baseball teams are also furthering this sense of community.”
The Flats Arts District project is slated to include 86 studio units, 185 one-bedroom units, 38 two-bedroom units, and two three-bedroom units. It will also have numerous amenities for its tenants, including a fitness center, resort-style spa facilities with saunas, workspaces, and a sunset deck and lounge.
The official ground-breaking ceremony was originally expected to take place in February, but a series of delays pushed it back to late May; the first tenants were expected to be able to move into their units by the end of 2025 and the project finished by March 2026, but now the first completed units will be made available in mid-2026 and the complex itself completed late that same year.
