SANDPIPER CONDOMINIUMS,
PALM DESERT
CA
The Sandpiper Condominiums are located within the 72000 block of El Paseo in Palm Desert CA. The complex was designed with Dan Palmer and built by Sandpiper Builders in 1958 with additional units completed in 1965. Sandpiper Builders also designed a similarly named, but unbuilt, development for Indian Wells. Sandpiper Condominiums consists of 306 units dispersed through 17 circles, with 16 units centered around a common swimming pool. Each unit was designed so as to not look directly into an adjacent unit with each having both public and private spaces. Entries are typically located along the side of each unit.
