What does Reno City Center have to offer?

Conveniently located in the North Tower at 175 East Second Street, each studio apartment is at least 300 square feet (12 feet by 25 feet). Floor plans will vary slightly.

Units will be fully furnished, including a bed, desk, chair, kitchenette and television. Residents will need to provide their own bedding and cooking utensils. Units are newly remodeled (to be completed by August 1, 2023) and feature wood-look floors for easy cleaning and a paid washer and dryer facility in the building.

Details about amenities are still being decided by the developer, however, it is anticipated (not guaranteed) that residents will include access to a brand new pool deck, game room, club room and a playroom for children.
