Panorama Towers is an award-winning high-rise residential condominium complex located in Paradise, Nevada.[1][2][3] Developed by Laurence Hallier and Andrew Sasson, the $600 million aqua-blue glass iconic towers helped pioneer the second wave of luxury residential units in the Las Vegas Valley.[4] Panorama Towers' 635-unit complex sits on 8.5 acres[5] on Dean Martin Drive and is centrally located across from the Las Vegas Strip just a 1/4 mile from CityCenter.[6][7]

With the opening of the Tower I in 2006, the 420 ft structure was the 16th tallest in Las Vegas metropolitan area at the time of construction and is currently ranked 35th along with the Marriott's Grand Chateau.

History

Early Model Design of Panorama Towers
Lobby of Panorama Towers

The concept for Panorama Towers was conceived by Laurence Hailler, president of Hallier Properties and Andrew Sasson, founder of the Light Group after not finding suitable luxury housing upon touring the recently built Park Towers and Turnberry Place.[8] As opposed to the large suites that made up the bulk of these complexes, both men wanted a small beautiful modern space in a style similar to what could be easily found in New York and Los Angeles. This led to a joint effort to make their vision of luxury living a reality.

In a September 2003 announcement, the original project consisted of four residential skyscrapers (two 33-story towers and two 44-story towers) on a 10.5-acre site on Harmon Blvd and Industrial Road (now Dean Martin Drive), with condos ranging from 1,000 to 4,000 square feet.[9][10][11]

Sassoon described the target clientele to the Las Vegas Sun as local residents who enjoy high-end design and the ideal central location of being only a block from the heart of the strip, which he labeled as Las Vegas’ beachfront.[12] [13]

Hallier commented that the city’s restaurant, the entertainment, and the other great metropolitan offerings are all centralized within a 5 miles radius and that people wanted to enjoy that kind of experience in their living quarters as well.

The name ‘Panorama Towers’ was chosen due to the extraordinary sights from every unit of the complex. On one side is the beauty of the Las Vegas skyline. The other offers breath-taking views of Red Rock Canyon and the Spring Mountains.

Panorama Towers hired renowned Vegas-based architecture firm Klai Juba whose previous work on Mandalay Bay, MGM Grand and Hard Rock Casino transformed the city’s landscape.[14] Their iconic aqua-blue glass towers has been nominated and won numerous awards from the design, construction and excellence service of the complex. Among the many honors was “The Best of Las Vegas’ architecture award by the editors of the Las Vegas Review Journal, and ‘High-Rise of the Year’ by the Community Associations Institute.

Fueled by a large demand, Tower I sold out in 12 weeks and Tower II, which opened in 2007, sold 98% of the units within 6 months.[15]

An additional 44 floor tower named 'Panorama Towers North' was built in 2009 and later was spun off as a separate property renamed The Martin.[16]

The units have regained a significant amount of their value with prices nearly doubled over the final six months of 2011.[18][19] Additionally, with the opening of the Harmon Overpass, it allows residents access to the heart of the Strip in 5 minutes.
