It’s been many years since Salt Lake City’s State Street has seen a new high-rise building. That will soon change. City Creek Reserve Inc. (CCRI) has announced that it plans to build a 25-story office tower on the corner of State Street and 100 South to be named “95 State at City Creek.”
According to Bruce Lyman, director of leasing for CCRI, 95 State’s downtown location and proximity to City Creek Center will offer businesses a compelling new choice for Class A office space in Salt Lake City.
“95 State at City Creek is designed to appeal to today’s employees,” said Lyman. “Its central location and state-of-the-art amenities are designed to maximize wellness, sustainability and productivity to help our tenants make the most of their workday.”
City Creek Reserve is the is a real estate investment affiliate of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. CCRI is the master developer of City Creek, a 23-acre retail, office and residential development in downtown Salt Lake City.
At 393 feet, the new building will be one of the tallest buildings in the state. The project will include 498,000 square feet of leasable office space and an additional 39,000 square feet of meetinghouse space for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The office tower and meetinghouse will have separate entrances and will be independently operated.
The skyscraper will offer office tenants amenities such as dedicated executive parking, exercise facilities, a private entrance for cyclists with secure bike storage, automated window shading and personalized HVAC systems that will allow individuals to control their microclimate.
The building will also feature a fifth-floor garden terrace with 7,000 square feet of landscaping, a lobby with 28-foot floor-to-ceiling glass, an on-site restaurant and a renovated underground pedestrian walkway beneath State Street with direct access to City Creek Center. It will be built as a WELL Certified building with plans to also qualify for LEED Gold and Wired certifications, according to Lyman.
Construction is set to begin this month with completion expected in fall 2021.
