LMC Tuesday announced the opening of Muse, a mixed-use community located in the Central Arts District of midtown Phoenix.
The luxury mid-rise development features 367 apartment homes and 11,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space, which includes Press Coffee, Forno 301 Pizzeria and Bar, Salon D'Shayn, and Community Florist. Move-ins began in mid-May.
"The revitalization movement in downtown Phoenix has really created a vibrant atmosphere, and we're thrilled to be a part of it," said Scott Johnson, division president for LMC, in a statement. "We believe Muse will provide an unmatched experience for those craving quality living within the pulse of the city. This is inspired urban living at its finest, as our residents are within steps of some of the city's best museums, entertainment venues, and dining options."
Situated at 1616 N. Central Ave., Muse is part of a renaissance in the greater downtown area. The walkable, amenity-driven community sits within a block of the Phoenix Theater, Phoenix Art Museum, and Phoenix Opera.
Muse consists of studios and one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartment homes ranging from 506 to 1,323 square feet. Amenities include a two-story clubhouse with outdoor lounge and prime views of the city; a 2,400-square-foot, fully equipped fitness center; a resort-style swimming pool with hot tub and dramatic sculptural water feature; a Zen garden; secure bike storage; and a pet-grooming center. The property also offers recycling services and car-charging stations.
The apartment interiors are equipped with stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, glass-tile backsplashes, wood-style flooring, soft-close wood cabinetry, undercabinet lighting, front-loading washers and dryers, walk-in closets, and high-end contemporary finishes and fixtures.
Including Muse, LMC has more than 1,000 apartment homes in operation, planned, or under construction in the Phoenix area.
