Local developers to add more missing middle to Central 9th

by | Jan 14, 2025

The developers of the Sloane Townhomes, the second phase of the project at the northwest corner of 800 S and 200 W, have applied for building permits for 18 units on a .55 acre parcel in the Central 9th neighborhood.

At 754 S 200 W, Urban Alfandre (a BSL advertiser) and Asilia Investments, formerly known as Gardner Batt, are preparing to build a mix of seven 3-BR, six 2-BR, and five 1-BR units, each with dedicated garage parking. 

The project is less than a block from the 900 South TRAX station. 

Architecture Belgique, a BSL advertiser, designed the handsome project across three buildings. Renderings show brick facades, windows with muntins, and a decorative cornice on part of the structure, which varies from 2 to 3.5 stories.

Like the Sloane Apartments, the Townhomes will be market-rate rentals.

Josh Smith, Director of Development and Construction for Urban Alfandre, told Building Salt Lake that the developers chose to do townhomes “because of some of the setback requirements bordering the single-family behind us,” referring to the row of well-kept 19th-century homes on Montrose Ave.

Parking will be accessed by Montrose and Bailey Place, midblock streets that betray the block’s historical development pattern. No new curb cuts will need to be made on 200 W or 800 S.

After permits are issued, Smith expects the project to be complete in 12 months. Vista Construction is the general contractor.
