Howard Hughes Holdings Inc., developer of the Summerlin community in Las Vegas, will add a Whole Foods Market in Downtown Summerlin, the community’s 400-acre urban core. Whole Foods will anchor a 7.4-acre, new retail center and serve as a catalyst for the expansion of Downtown Summerlin.
“Whole Foods Market is known for its standards of excellence and being an industry leader when it comes to natural and organic foods, and we believe it is an ideal addition to the Summerlin community,” said Frank Stephan, president of the Nevada Region for Howard Hughes.
The announcement marks the launch in one of Howard Hughes’ fastest growing downtowns across the country, with additional office, inline retail and multifamily housing options planned for the new retail center to be anchored by Whole Foods Market.
The new retail center is being built to achieve LEED Silver certification from the U.S. Green Building Council. Residents of the nearby luxury apartment communities of Tanager, Tanager Echo, Constellation as well as adjacent neighborhoods will enjoy pedestrian connectivity to Whole Foods Market via a well-developed interior trail system as well as access to electric vehicle charging stations.
Construction commenced in September with core and shell completion for the new retail center slated for Q3 2024. Field Paoli Architects is the project’s architect, and Nevada General Construction is the general contractor.
