As part of the new UnCommons mixed-use development just beyond the Strip in southwest Las Vegas, Nucor Buildings delivered three pre-engineered metal American Buildings to house the Sundry Food Hall, Urth Caffe & Bar and a third food establishment. 

The close to 23,000 sq. ft. of Gensler-designed buildings earned a 2023 Design Award from the Metal Construction Association and a Metal Architecture first place design award in the Commercial Roof category. 

The Urth Caffe restaurant is WELL and Green Globes certified, designed in a farm-to-table spirit with organic, sustainable and local ingredients. The building features large windows connecting the indoor seating with the outdoor patio area. Meanwhile, the bigger Sundry Market Hall features a curated collection of regional and international cuisine. 

The team selected metal for its ability to design open spaces with strong foundations in a cost-effective manner. In addition, the metal enabled the architects to design unique roof angles and large open ceilings providing views of the Las Vegas skies and enjoy the fresh air.
