ACRA endorses Lift One<\/p>\n
The Aspen Chamber Resort Association’s board of director announced last week its endorsement of the Lift One corridor proposal, which goes to voters Tuesday.<\/p>\n
The board adopted a resolution in support of the municipal ballot at a monthly meeting held Feb. 26, following presentations the project’s principals and foes.<\/p>\n
“The Aspen Chamber has been actively involved for over a decade in supporting a revitalization at the base of Lift 1A. The project on the March 5 ballot will bring a host of new amenities that will enhance our already world-class town, including park space, a lift closer to town, two much-needed hotels, and a ski museum that pays homage to our deep roots as a ski town,” said board chair Cristal Logan in a statement. “Our board carefully considered all sides, and believes the project deserves our support.”<\/p>\n
Lift One developers are seeking 320,000 square feet of commercial space, which includes the 107,000-square-foot timeshare project known as the Lift One Lodge and a 64,000-square-foot hotel called the Gorsuch Haus. Other components include bars and restaurants, a ski museum, skiers’ services, an underground parking garage and a new chairlift extending to Dean Street, which is 500 feet farther down the hill than the current Lift 1A.<\/p>\n
