When I joined Lyle Realtors last year, the buzz in the office was the new development across the street called Port Lawrence, the first Condo & Mixed-Used Loft project in Palm Springs located at the corner of N. Palm Canyon Dr. & Alejo Rd. My broker, Scott Lyle, was instrumental in acquiring the property for developers Lawrence & Graeme Rael.
Port Lawrence Design Architect Doug Hudson has created a new standard in modern architecture & design that has even impressed the toughest critics in Palm Springs. This new development is setting the stage for the revitalization of Downtown Palm Springs. The Port Lawrence community amenities are designed with luxury & comfort in mind. You can look forward to:
- Resort Pool and Outdoor Living Courtyard
