About Sheraton Phoenix Downtown
Sheraton Phoenix Downtown, a convention hotel, stands in Downtown Phoenix, Arizona, north of Van Buren Street on 3rd Street. It sits next to the Phoenix Convention Center and the Arizona Center, a complex of offices and shops. The project cost US$350 million. The Phoenix City Council approved it in July 2003, with the city as owner and Sheraton Hotels as developer and operator, as a Starwood facility. Standing 31 floors high, it overtook the 24-floor Hyatt Regency Phoenix as Arizona's tallest hotel tower.
On November 3, 2004, the city announced that it had picked two firms, Arquitectonica and RSP Architects, for the project. Ground was broken in late March 2006, the tower reached its full height in October 2007, and the hotel opened to guests on September 30, 2008.
It offers 1,000 rooms and 7,400 m2 (80,000 square feet) of meeting space, including a ballroom of 2,700 m2 (29,000 square feet). Its exterior browns, oranges and yellows were picked to evoke the desert sky at sunset, and the curved roofline echoes the slope of nearby Camelback Mountain.

- Large flat faces with lettering
- The tower's broad faces carry fine engraved lines and lettering near the top. A layer height of 0.12–0.16 mm keeps them legible, and "Full detail" keeps them on a larger print.
- Curved crown and tall slab
- The top edge curves gently across the slab. Printing the upper layers slowly and a larger print size help this tall, narrow tower stay stable and smooth.
- One piece with the ground
- Sheraton Phoenix Downtown is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.
- Pick the detail for your nozzle
- In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.
- Colors
- Buildings, roads, water and ground arrive as separate filament slots in the 3MF. Sheraton Phoenix Downtown takes the building color.
- File format
- You get a 3MF for Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or PrusaSlicer. Any of them can save it as STL if you need one.
