Horizons, the first residential high-rise develop­ment to be built after a 10 year slump, started the re­develop­ment of downtown San Diego. This 25 storey twin tower project comprises 211 units totaling over 34 746 m² (374 000 ft²), as well as 1 040 m² (11 200 ft²) of retail space at street level. The build­ing offers bright, open floor plans, with spec­tacular views and large sized balconies and roof decks. The inner court is gated, with an entry attendant station. Other amenities include elegant entrance lobbies, an outdoor swim­ming pool and spa surrounded by a large deck, an extensive fitness center with change rooms, conference rooms, computer rooms, social lounge, outdoor barbecue area and bike storage. Overall, the design of the complex aims to contribute to the livability and residential character of the Marina District and creates an exciting new energy and pleasant landmark.
