ULI honors Vegas development

Friday, Nov. 8, 2002 | 11:18 a.m.

Urban Land Institute, a non-profit education and research institute dedicated to real estate development, has named Summerlin the New Community of the Year in its 2002 Awards For Excellence competition. The award, which is coveted in the development industry, was presented at last week's ULI fall meeting in Las Vegas.

"The Summerlin success story is one of the most compelling in the country," said Wayne Ratkovich, chairman of the ULI Awards For Excellence jury. "Neighborhoods, recreational amenities, shopping centers, natural open areas, schools and other community facilities in Summerlin are layered and integrated to create a total living environment."

Summerlin, which is in western Las Vegas, is being developed by the Howard Hughes Corp. Hughes is owned by the Rouse Co. of Columbia, Md.
