Sullivan Square takes home award

Sullivan Square, a new, 16.5-acre mixed-use project in southwest Las Vegas, recently won the award for Best Overall Model Home at The Best of Nevada Real Estate Awards event Aug. 11. The awards ceremony was part of the third Annual International Real Estate Expo and Conference.

Nominated in three categories, Sullivan Square earned the award for its design and concept for its sales center, including a vignette showcasing interiors and finishes of the community's first high-rise tower, Madison Tower I.

"It is an honor to have been selected by the public and recognized by members of the statewide real estate community," said Kenneth Smith, founder, partner and managing director of Glen, Smith & Glen Development, the developer of Sullivan Square.

"The feedback from those who have visited our sales center has been extremely positive in regard to the lifestyle, living options and amenities that we are offering."

The sales center features a scale model display of the project and a model of Madison Tower I.

A virtual tour of the community displays all of the living options and highlights amenities available at Sullivan Square. Interiors and finishes in the high-rise condominiums and live/work spaces are on display, both of which include wood flooring in the kitchen, main living area and dining room, quartz stone countertops with glass mosaic backsplashes and Italian-designed cabinetry in the kitchen and bath.

Sullivan Square recently celebrated the groundbreaking of the community and is in the final days of a special buyer incentive available for those who sign a contract for a new home in August.

The incentive offers a payment plan that allows buyers to complete their obligation for their down payment in three installments. For homes $450,000 and under, one percent is due at contract signing, with two percent due in October 2007 and two percent due in February 2008. For homes $450,000 and more, two percent is due at contract signing, with an additional four percent due in October 2007 and four percent due in February 2008.

Upon completion, Sullivan Square will consist of about 1,300 residences. Units in Sullivan Square's first phase range in size from 500 to 2,000 square feet with prices from the low $300,000s to $1.8 million. Residences currently available for sale are the traditional brownstones, live/work spaces and condominiums in Madison I, the project's first high-rise tower. The neighborhood will soon offer mid-rise terraced condominiums, Chicago-style lofts and townhomes, completing the community's six options of urban living.

Amenities at Sullivan Square include a 1.5-acre community park, a dog park, concierge, workout facility and pool. Sullivan Square's market street will be filled with 25 locally owned shops and services, including an independently owned café, restaurant, full-service deli, neighborhood pub, florist, fresh fish monger, wine shop, coffee shop, bakery and butcher.
