To date, specific income requirements have not been revealed.

Future residents will have access to 20,000 square feet of amenities including 199 attended parking spaces, a resident lounge, a movie screening and media room, a children’s playroom, multiple landscaped outdoor spaces, a basketball and pickleball court, a golf simulator, a yoga studio, a conference room, a pet spa, and bicycle storage.

The building will also house 14,000 square feet of retail space.

Energy-efficient building and design components will include vertical heat pump systems, a roof water retention system, low-emissivity materials in the façade to help reduce the amount of energy needed to maintain interior temperatures, and Energy Star appliances in each apartment.

Goldman Sachs Asset Management’s Urban Investment Group provided construction financing for Archer Towers, which is slated for completion in spring of 2024.
