This is a beautiful new 3,000 acre neighborhood being developed on the Southwest side of the city by Focus Commercial Group. About 500 acres of open space will be featured within the community, which will comprise about 12,500 residences from more than 20 builders. The first model homes are expected to open early in 2005, and some builders have opened sales trailers. Amenities will include neighborhood parks, as well as a clubhouse with two swimming pools, a spa, kitchen, party room, basketball court, playground, workout areas and barbecue facilities. Mountain’s Edge encompasses much of the Las Vegas Valley’s historical elements because of its proximity to the Old Spanish Trail. One of the area’s main attractions will be an 80-acre, western-themed park, one of four that will honor the early residents and visitors in the surrounding area. Mountain’s Edge touts itself as “The New Southwest,” and this new master-planned community certainly lives up to its name. Much of the land’s desert setting has been preserved, offering a scenic backdrop to the burgeoning neighborhood.
