ZenCity (For Developers)
ZenCity is our developer solution that allows you to combine and stack units in endless configurations. Our Citizen and Denizen models are designed to be combined and can be stacked up to five stories high. With steel frames, the units can even stack on top of existing ground retail or parking. Assemble multi-level designs with ease and maximize the space in your floor plate with our Citizen and Denizen building blocks.
29 W in Mesa, AZ
Our first ZenCity project starting construction this summer
29 W is an apartment complex that will be built entirely from individual ZenniHome units. While we are precision-building the units in our factory, Caliber is preparing the site for installation.
Situated on just 1/2 acre of land, 29 W will feature two towers of 90 total units stacked 5 stories high over existing retail.
Our Citizen and Denizen models act as building blocks that are designed to be combined and can stack up to five stories high. This means you can fit more rentable units in smaller spaces.
We will finish construction of the 29 W homes later this year and deliver them directly to the site for Caliber to install.
ZenniHome breaks the boundaries of traditional on-site construction by allowing developers to prep the site at the same time the homes are being built in the factory.

ZenCity saves you time and money compared to a traditional site-built project.
Order the homes you need for your development and they will be manufactured and quality-assured within our factory.
By building homes on an assembly line in a controlled environment, we eliminate weather delays, streamline trade schedules, ensure precision construction, enhance efficiency, minimize waste, and maintain consistent quality.
While we precision-build your homes to your design specifications, you obtain all necessary permits, develop the land, and prepare the site. Once you are ready for installation, your homes are delivered directly to your project site.
By running a concurrent timeline, you can save up to 30% of costs and 50% of your time - bringing renters through the doors in record time.
