History

edit

99 West was built on the site of the Inn at Temple Square, which had recently been demolished. It was the first building at City Creek Center to start construction, with the concrete pour for its foundation beginning in March 2008.[5][6] During development and construction, the tower was known as Tower 1 and The Promontory on South Temple.[3] As construction wrapped up, the condos went on sale in February 2011 with move-in dates expected that spring.[4]

In May 2019, the Utah Sports Hall of Fame opened a museum on the street level of the building.[7][8]

Design

edit

The design of the 375 feet (114 m) tall residential skyscraper consists of a unique brick façade. 99 West is the tallest residential skyscraper in City Creek Center and the fifth-tallest skyscraper in Salt Lake City.[citation needed] Besides the residential floors, the street level contains retail space, and beneath the tower is underground parking.[1] The building is LEED Gold certified.[1]
