Vestra at UnCommons Receives NAIOP Spotlight Award
Honored in the Multi-Family Project category, Vestra at UnCommons
exemplifies forward-thinking residential development
Leading development firm Matter Real Estate Group is proud to announce that Vestra at UnCommons has been honored with the prestigious NAIOP Spotlight Award for “Multi-Family Project” at NAIOP’s (National Association for Industrial and Office Parks) 28th Annual Spotlight Awards. Awarded to “best in class” developments by the organization’s Southern Nevada chapter, this recognition underscores Vestra’s excellence in design, innovation and impact within its category.
The first residential development for Matter Real Estate Group, Vestra at UnCommons was designed to redefine modern multifamily living through thoughtful architecture, best-in-class amenities, and its location on the vibrant UnCommons campus. Completed in July 2024, Vestra encompasses three buildings with a total of 352 luxury apartment homes featuring high-end interiors by Jules Wilson Design Studio and architecture by EDI International. Offering smart home technology, resort-style amenities, coworking spaces, and pet-friendly features, Vestra exemplifies the next generation of elevated urban living in Las Vegas.
“Vestra was envisioned as a place where residents could seamlessly integrate home, work and social life in a thoughtfully designed environment,” said Jim Stuart, partner at Matter Real Estate Group. “This NAIOP Spotlight Award reinforces our commitment to creating spaces that not only elevate the residential experience but also contribute to the greater vision of UnCommons as a forward-thinking business and lifestyle hub in southwest Las Vegas.”
Designed by globally renowned architectural firm Gensler, UnCommons has singularly shifted Las Vegas’s epicenter of business to the southwest—now the city’s most sought-after commercial district. In addition to attracting industry leaders including DraftKings, Morgan Stanley, Deloitte and Sotheby’s, UnCommons will welcome Kiln’s flagship 31,000-square-foot coworking space in April, expanding access for companies of all sizes. The 40-acre walkable campus is home to in-demand dining and lifestyle destinations, including Wineaux by James Beard Award-winning Chef Shawn McClain; All’Antico Vinaio, the legendary Florentine sandwich shop with “the world’s best sandwich”; Siempre, J.B. a modern Mexican dining destination from AYYA Hospitality; General Admission, which offers a hip setting for sports viewing and modern American cuisine; Salt & Straw, Las Vegas Weekly’s pick for the city’s best ice cream; and Blue Bottle Coffee, which will open its first Nevada coffee shop at UnCommons this month, among others.
UnCommons continues to set new benchmarks for sustainable and community-centric development, having earned both WELL™ Certification and Green Globes® Certification for its commitment to environmental responsibility and workplace well-being. With its NAIOP Spotlight Award win, Vestra at UnCommons stands as a model for the future of multifamily living in southwest Las Vegas.
