Tempe has one of the most significant housing shortages in Arizona, and with a population up 3.5% since 2020, the  city has nowhere to go but up.  

Astria Tempe, the 27-story mixed-use development, will support the growing need by adding 380 multifamily units to the Tempe housing market. 

The 521,553 SF project includes: 

  • 380 multifamily units. 
  • Rooftop swimming pool. 
  • Study pods. 
  • Pet walk
  • Seven levels of parking, with additional spaces for nearby businesses. 

With only 7 feet of clearance on three sides and the Arizona State University campus right next door, the jobsite leaves little room for error. To protect neighbors and keep surrounding streets operational, Layton crews built an elevated work platform over the back alley, allowing cars, trucks, and pedestrians to pass through uninterrupted. 

It’s taken 356,109 work hours to reach this milestone, with 300 workers arriving on site daily..  

Construction is expected to be completed in summer 2027.
