JE Dunn Construction and Hatteras Sky announced a major milestone, as its newest development in Phoenix, Saiya, celebrated its official “topping out” last month. The 23-story apartment high-rise project, located at First Avenue and West McKinley Street, broke ground in July 2022. Saiya will feature 389 residential units, 12,550 SF of street-level retail, and amenity spaces that complement and enhance the booming cultural hub in which Saiya lives.

Located in the Roosevelt Row Arts District of Downtown Phoenix, Saiya will be perfectly woven into the walkable arts district, nationally known for its arts and cultural events, award-winning restaurants, galleries, boutiques, and live music. Saiya, designed as a symbol of modern living and architectural excellence, will also cater to the evolving needs and desires of the growing city’s residents.

“Saiya will provide Phoenix with a unique combination of extraordinary metropolitan transit accessibility, as well as cultural approachability,” said Oz Friedmann, Principal at Hatteras Sky. “We are excited to offer residents immediate access to a vast array of local art, commercial attractions, and existing community spaces.”

Saiya is being delivered by contractor, JE Dunn Construction.

“With tower cranes dotting the skyline as Phoenix experiences rapid growth, being a part of the construction of Saiya is a testament to the city’s upward trajectory,” said JE Dunn Senior Project Manager, Heath White. “We are not just creating a building, but a landmark that will contribute to the vibrancy of this thriving urban community.”
