US: Toll Brothers has started the construction of a 37-storey tower in San Diego, which will include extended stay hotel rooms.
The Lindley tower is close to the city’s Little Italy neighbourhood and will offer 59 extended stay hotel rooms, as well as 363 residential apartments.
The mixed-use development will also have retail space on the ground floor, an outdoor pool and spa on the seventh floor, BBQ area, games room, clubhouse and wine bar.
Guests can also enjoy a gym with a sauna, massage and yoga rooms.
It’s expected the length of stay for travellers visiting San Diego, and staying at the extended stay property, will be for around 30-90 days.
There will be 561 car parking spaces in the development and capacity for 222 electric vehicle charging spots.
The US$285 million complex has been designed by Joseph Wong Design Associates, which is helping to create a lower carbon emission building. This includes sourcing building materials which have less impact on the environment and creating a greener building once operating.
Once completed the property will achieve the environmental certificate LEED Gold set by the US Green Building Council.
This year NMHC ranked Toll Brothers Apartment Living the 11th largest apartment developer in the United States. Today, the company has developed nearly 8,500 units, has nearly 4,500 units under management, and controls a national pipeline of more than 20,500 units.
The US extended stay market remains strong with the Highland Group reporting positive results in May.
