Utah State Senator Margaret Dayton and her husband Dr. Lynn Dayton discuss the model on display of the possible new development in Lehi designed by renowned architect Frank Gehry...
...The hotel remains a five-star facility with 250 rooms, 45 stories high - potentially Utah's tallest building. The signature arena will be a spacious 500,000 square feet with 10,000 seats
The concept showed an intercirculatory underground network of roads. More roads will be underground than above the surface of the development.
"The project is going to be very vertical in nature, with a lot of buildings wrapping around one another and on top of one another," Corner said...
...Once the final project approvals are given this summer, construction will begin on the hotel, the arena and the two wakeboarding lakes, Andersen said.
