McShane Construction Company is again building for Milhaus within the municipal bounds of Tempe at a new site coined, Apache, a new 219-unit luxury multifamily development.

“We’re thrilled to work on another project in Tempe with Milhaus,” said Senior Vice President at McShane, Jim Kurtzman, in a prepared statement. “Located in an Opportunity Zone, Apache will bring luxury apartments to Tempe’s rapidly growing Cultural District.”

Atop a 4.5-acre site at 2125 E. Apache Blvd., the “Opportunity Zone” development will incorporate two four-story, wood-frame buildings. The exterior façade systems will feature a mix of stucco, fiber cement board, standing seam, and brick veneer, according to a press release.

The property will offer 6,000 square feet of amenity space, including a resident lounge with a coffee shop, a fitness center, communal kitchen, rec/game room, large play pool and spa, dog spa and park, barbeque grills and covered gathering areas, the release states.

Designed with sustainability in mind, the development will be partially solar-powered with solar panels on carports to reduce electricity usage in the common areas.

McShane worked with the owner, architect, and engineers during the pre-construction phase to provide improved constructability methods and determine best practices for the project’s construction.

Additionally, the firm conducted value engineering to combat the current market material increases and help the project stay within budget. McShane is also currently underway with Banyan North Tempe for Milhaus, a 310-unit multi-family development in Tempe.

Completion of Apache is slated for September 2023. The architect is CCBG Architects.
