His first project in metro Phoenix is called Rainbow Road, a 36-unit boutique apartment building to break ground this year at the southwest corner of First and Portland streets in the Roosevelt Row District in downtown Phoenix.

The community boasts a rainbow road through the courtyard and onto the sidewalks, reminiscent of the Mario Kart video game. Some of the units also will feature video-game inspired steps leading to the entrances and in-unit functionality for casual and experienced gamers. Libeskind said he found the exact color palette for Mario Kart, and that became a defining factor of the building.

The architectural style of the building will feature floor-to-ceiling angular glass windows, giving the illusion of movement in the building.
