Downtown Update - Liberty Sky - June through August

“We’re excited to see residential on State Street, which is a fairly new addition to the ecosystem,” said Christian Harrison, the Downtown Community Council chairman.
“It is a good sign that State Street is turning a corner. We do hope it spurs more development farther south along State Street.”

“Offices are daytime [operations] and don’t create vibrancy or activity in the evenings. In downtown, they create dead zones,” Planning Director Norris added. “Apartments put eyes on
public spaces basically all day long. Those residents tend to go out at night and walk around the neighborhood. It enlivens downtown.”


(Artist's rendition courtesy of Cowboy Properties) Cowboy Properties and Boyer Co. are looking to build a 24-story apartment building on the east side of State Street between
the Federal Building on 100 South and the Maverik headquarters building on 200 South. The $90 million project is being praised for its prospects of bringing more residents to downtown Salt Lake City.

The Salt Lake Tribune - By Mike Gorrell - Convinced that downtown living is increasingly desirable, real-estate developers Cowboy Properties and Boyer Co. are building a 24-story apartment building on State Street between 100 and 200 South...

...The $90 million high-rise would include roughly 300 apartment units and a rooftop swimming pool. A five-story parking terrace would be built on its east side, hidden from street views by surrounding buildings.

Although rent levels would vary, Cowboy Properties President and CEO Dan Lofgren said most would cost near the “top of the market in today’s market. We’ll have studios to very large two bedrooms, units that
go for under $1,000 [a month] while some of the largest will be several thousand.”...

...“As the downtown residential market has evolved, and as we massaged what we thought was the best option, this residential tower emerged,” Lofgren said. “Downtown Salt Lake City has become an amenity-rich environment.
It’s become a great neighborhood. The pieces that were missing 10 years ago — not that it was bad then — are now filled in.“

First and foremost: the Harmons City Creek market at 135 E. 100 South. “The grocery store makes it a neighborhood,” Lofgren said. “For many household configurations, the option of living downtown has become the
preferred option. These are households hoping to live without a car, households looking for the convenience of being close to work, households energized by all the activities downtown,
households attracted to this notion of a high-rise and the views and lifestyle it offers.”

At the projected rent levels, he sees these apartments appealing to people working at high-tech and financial-services companies, law firms and banks. Retirees also are likely renters, Lofgren added,
“drawn especially by the arts downtown — the symphony, the ballet, Eccles Theater. That’s a pretty full basket of offerings.”...

...Planning Director Norris said the shift from office tower to residential high-rise is “certainly consistent with our master plan policies, which try to increase the number of people living downtown.”

Irvine, CA-headquartered CREDE broke ground on Park Avenue Apartments, a 238-unit multifamily complex in Salt Lake City’s Sugar House community. Developed in partnership with Salt Lake City-based Cottonwood Residential, the project is set for a Q4 2021 delivery.

CREDE’s Colby Durnin says, “Park Avenue Apartments will provide highly desirable apartments in the burgeoning Sugar House area. The economic growth of Utah and Salt Lake City in particular, have led to a strong need for new residential options, as more companies relocate or open offices in Salt Lake City.”

The mid-rise 238-unit project will offer studio, one and two-bedroom apartment homes. Each unit will include nine-foot ceilings, luxury vinyl wood plank flooring, upgraded cabinetry and stone countertops, with most units having a balcony or patio. The building will also feature 1,400 square feet of retail space, a fitness center, and a resort-style pool with an outdoor terrace that includes fire pits, barbecues and two hot tubs.

Dust is newly stirring up on the block directly south of the Arena in West Downtown. The PaperBox Lofts, a project of Clearwater Homes and PEG Development, is clearing its inner block-long site
for construction. The developers are in final arrangements with the city for building permits, and expect construction to take 18-22 months...

It looks like the block is set to become even more dense. Clearwater hopes to submit designs for an 85 foot,

Salt Lake City’s newest project, the Paper Box Lofts, will include 195 apartments and an ‘automobile vending machine’

https://www.sltrib.com/news/2019/03/...-citys-newest/

Developers began Tuesday to convert an old mid-block industrial site in downtown Salt Lake City into a project known as Paper Box Lofts, which will have three residential high rises, retail spaces, a visually
striking open plaza and a unique automated parking system.

Officials with Utah-based ClearWater Homes and PEG Development broke ground on the 1.99-acre property at about 340 West 200 South, just south of the Utah Jazz’s Vivint Smart Home Arena. When done,
the project will include 195 apartments.

Under an agreement with the city’s Redevelopment Agency, which has helped subsidize the project, developers will keep 36 apartments affordable to residents making 60 percent of the area median income.

Sixty percent of the area median income would be $31,700 in annual earnings for an individual, $36,200 for a household of two people and $40,700 for a household of three, according to data from Salt Lake City.

With its affordable housing, new parking, green space and midblock pedestrian walkways, Mayor Jackie Biskupski said Paper Box Lofts “will benefit our whole community.”

The project is also expected to extend the city’s downtown core further westward and improve pedestrian access from the traditional downtown to The Gateway. Salt Lake City-based ClearWater and PEG,
based in Provo, said the first residences of Paper Box Lofts are expected to be completed by spring of 2021.

Officials with ClearWater and PEG praised the help provided by city officials and the RDA in overcoming challenges with the property’s long, rectangular shape in designing what ClearWater CEO Micah Peters called
“a multifamily project we haven’t seen in this city before.”

Downtown’s latest housing project draws its name from Utah PaperBox, a privately owned packaging company founded in 1914 that occupied the site until it relocated in 2013 to new headquarters
at 920 South 700 West.

The PaperBox property, which is adjacent to a light-rail station, runs the east-west length of that block and has frontage on both 300 West and 400 West, giving it the equivalent of “two front yards,”
according to city documents.

One of those, the development’s east frontage on 300 West, will feature an open plaza with prominently displayed public art, serving “as a type of ‘calling card’ or ‘stamp’ for the entire project by providing
an engaging and colorful mural” painted on the side of its main parking structure, city documents say.

ClearWater and PEG have contracted with VCBO Architecture in Salt Lake City for design of the PaperBox project. Rimrock Construction is the builder.

The project is a leap forward for the Depot District, a westside area spanning Salt Lake Central Station and land west of The Gateway and designated by the city as blighted and in need of redevelopment.

ClearWater and PEG say the Paper Box Lofts’ first building, on 300 West, will have 95 residential units, and the second, on 400 West, will have 85 units. The third, smaller structure will have four residences.

Nearly half those will be one bedrooms, with the rest studio and two-bedroom apartments. Up to 14 units in the larger buildings will provide both working and living space, known as live-work or flex apartments.

Paper Box Lofts will also boast roughly 146 parking stalls, with about 96 of stalls those built into a large, multi-level parking structure designed to automatically stack and retrieve cars dropped off by their drivers.

Peters likened the system to “an automobile vending machine” that will essentially stack cars seven levels high. This is thought to be the first time such an automated parking system, made by an Oakland
company called CityLift, has been deployed in Salt Lake City.

Councilwoman Amy Folwer, who is also chair of the RDA board, called the new system “incredibly exciting” and said it could help the city meet a range of parking needs downtown.

ClearWater Homes has built several recent projects in the downtown area near the PaperBox site, including Broadway Lofts, just north of Pioneer Park, and Paragon Station, a 38-unit luxury condominium project
just south of the Utah PaperBox site.

PEG Development is owner and developer of two new hotels, Hyatt House and Marriott Courtyard, north of the PaperBox parcel, as well as the Milagro Apartments, at the southwest corner of 200 West and
200 South.

Convention center hotel project from 200 South, at West Temple. Photo by Luke Garrott.


Construction on the hotel started Jan. 13 and the grand opening is scheduled for October 2022.

Jason Lee for the Deseret News...Salt Lake County officials, in conjunction with Atlanta-based real estate developer Portman Holdings, broke ground Friday on the building, which the Hyatt Hotels Corp.
will manage and operate as the new Hyatt Regency Salt Lake City. The new hotel will be located at the corner of 200 South and West Temple in downtown Salt Lake City, adjacent to the Salt Palace Convention Center.

Scheduled to open in October 2022, the $377-million project will be partially financed through the Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy program, which allows for specialty financing to enable green energy design and implementation,
a news release stated. The 700-plus room hotel will be among the first “ground-up” developments to utilize the program in the Beehive State...

...“It gives us another layer of sophistication when it comes to attracting bigger and better shows to the state of Utah that helps the entire area. Utah’s going to take a better step in terms of prominence on the national stage because of a
facility like this,” he said. “People that hadn’t considered the state before are now going to say, ‘I need to look at Utah, I need to be in Utah for these conventions.’ That’s what kind of prominence this new center is going to give us.”

The 686,784-square-foot, 26-story hotel will include 700 guest rooms and 60,000 square feet of meeting space, as well as two separate restaurants on the first and sixth floors and a lobby bar. The sixth-floor restaurant will sit adjacent to
an outdoor area with a swimming pool, as well as a 7,500-square-foot outdoor terrace for events and other activities.

The project will be directly connected to the Salt Palace Convention Center to provide convenience for convention attendees, Baisiwala said...

...“This hotel is built directly into the convention center, which makes it exceptionally easy for the convention attendees to go in and out from their hotel rooms into the convention center,” he said. “Perhaps more importantly, it has a lot
of suites — big rooms where VIPs can be housed. And it also has a lot of meeting space which augments the number of meeting rooms of the Salt Palace.”

Downtown Update, Block 67 Development Timeline


By Tony Semerad, The Salt Lake Tribunehttps://www.sltrib.com/news/2019/12/...city-approves/

Salt Lake City has approved a way to pump $15 million into building a huge subterranean parking garage for Block 67, an upcoming ambitious residential and hotel project on the western edge of the city’s downtown.

The agreement, backed Tuesday by the City Council in its role overseeing the city’s Redevelopment Agency (RDA), clears a major hurdle for what is to be known as The West Quarter, a 6.45-acre development bounded by
100 South and 200 South from 200 West to 300 West.

(Rendering by The Ritchie Group) A rendering of The Ritchie Group's proposed Block 67 development in Salt Lake City, as though looking north along 300 West...

Developers with Salt Lake City-based The Ritchie Group and Garn Development Co. in Layton plan to build more than 650 dwellings, two hotels, an office tower, retail shops, a tree-lined street cut through the block and an underground
parking garage with more than 1,200 stalls.


With its four towers and extensive amenities, to be built in two phases, The West Quarter project will push the center of the city’s urban core west, with more robust pedestrian connections between the existing downtown and The Gateway and
Vivint Smart Home Arena farther west.

“It really is a good project,” Councilman Charlie Luke said Tuesday. “It really is going to do a lot for the city and especially for that part of the city in terms of redevelopment."...

...Ryan Ritchie, a principal in The Ritchie Group, has said the underground parking garage is integral to the project’s overall financial success...The loan agreement sets up a legal mechanism for the city to give the developers the $15 million in
money for the parking garage, then lets the developers pay it back over time as their project generates additional tax money. Salt Lake City’s RDA will, in turn, pass those payments back to the county...

Jacobsen is partnering with The Ritchie Group and Garn Development to build Phase I of The Block 67 Project. The West Quarter, a multi-use development that will help define the emerging sports and entertainment district in downtown Salt Lake City.
The project — adjacent to Vivint Smart Home Arena — will feature more than 650 residential units, a mid-block street with access to 200 South and 300 West, and a subterranean parking garage. The scope of work also includes more than
100,000 square feet of retail space, 430,000 square feet of office space and a 271-room hotel.

My wife did point out to me today as we drove around downtown that there are many work trucks from out of state license plats at the various projects. I thought that this was nice in that we are pulling workers from other states for our projects.

Update, Downtown Adj. - University Of Utah Stadium Project

‘We’ve got one shot to get this right and that’s our absolute plan’...Rice-Eccles getting $80 million in enhancements.




By Dirk Facer

https://www.deseret.com/2019/11/30/2...tadium-project

SALT LAKE CITY — The University of Utah broke ground back in November — albeit in ceremonial fashion — on its new Ken Garff Performance Zone. Dignitaries in hard hats used gold shovels to turn some dirt on the $80 million project
that officially began in January...When complete in the summer of 2021, the Ken Garff Performance Zone will bring significant enhancements to the stadium. The existing building and stands in the south end zone will be replaced by a
structure featuring new locker rooms, meeting spaces and premium seating. It’ll enclose the stadium and raise the capacity for Utah football games from 45,807 to 51,444. Funds for the project are being covered by donations and future
revenue streams associated with the new suites, loge boxes, ledge seating, stadium club, field-level club, rooftop terrace, and benches. The zone will also include sports medicine and hospitality areas, as well as spaces for equipment, media,
and a recruiting lounge. Harlan said it will be one of the best facilities in the country when completed.

University members and donating families participate in the groundbreaking ceremony for the new Ken Garff Performance Zone before the start of an NCAA football game
between the Utah Utes and Colorado Buffaloes at Rice-Eccles Stadium in Salt Lake City on Saturday, Nov. 30, 2019. Colter Peterson, Deseret News

Olympic Cauldron relocated to make way for Stadium Expansion

By Merritt Jewel for KSL.COM - https://www.ksl.com/article/46717744...dium-expansion

https://img.ksl.com/slc/2773/277396/...nsive_story_lg

SALT LAKE CITY — Cranes and construction workers surrounded the Olympic Cauldron Park Thursday afternoon in preparation for the Rice-Eccles stadium expansion, only to face a small hiccup.

...Original plans to move the 72-foot tall 2002 Olympic Cauldron were postponed to Friday when the moving company, Mountain Crane, realized the cauldron was bolted down to 2 feet of cement, making it substantially
more heavy than originally estimated. A crane to handle the now estimated 56,000-pound cauldron was brought in, and Friday morning, crews moved the structure. For about a year, the cauldron will relocate to a secured location
for refurbishments while construction for the Ken Garff Performance Zone is underway.

By football season 2021, the cauldron will be back on the University of Utah campus permanently. Preliminary work for stadium expansion began in January on the south side of the stadium. According to Paul Kirk, the associate athletic
director for communications at the University of Utah, the Performance Zone will replace a majority of the Olympic Cauldron Park creating 5,000 more available seats, which will include premium seating options, bringing
the new seating capacity to a little more than 51,000. Seating on the south end zone will be torn down after the 2020 football season. Reconstruction plans have always encompassed the cauldron, Kirk told KSL.com.

The new cauldron will sit on a 16-18 foot concrete pedestal west of its current location south of the stadium to protect the structure and make it more visible to the general public. The new plaza will also incorporate a water feature
surrounding the cauldron, to commemorate the theme of fire and ice from the 2002 winter Olympics.

A full refurbishing process will include removing all 738 individual glass panes from the cauldron, replacing them with new glass and LED lights. Due to weather and time, the cauldron’s current glass panes are deteriorating.
Plans for the new glass will include similar bright colors from the 2002 cauldron.

The cauldron's infrastructure will also change from its original fire winding up the feature and water cooling system.“We're not using natural gas that’s contributing to pollution,” said Shawn Wood, community liaison and communications
specialist for the University of Utah. “It's gonna be a lot more energy-efficient.” Wood told KSL.com that they want to make it last another 18 years, and even longer.

Once back in place, the cauldron will continue to only be lit for special occasions.

“It’s one of those things that we want to keep special,” Wood said. “We just want to continue on with that legacy. The 2002 Olympics was one of the most successful Olympics,
and we just want to continue to make the culture last as long as it can.”

Crews move the 2002 Winter Olympic cauldron at Rice-Eccles Stadium in Salt Lake City on Friday, Feb. 14, 2020. The cauldron will be moved to a temporary location where
it will be refurbished while work is completed on the stadium’s expansion project, after which it will be returned to a new pedestal at the stadium. Spenser Heaps, Deseret News

Downtown Update - Redevelopment, Seismic Upgrades, Renovation and Restoration of Historic Temple Square

https://www.mormonnewsroom.org/artic...ple-renovation

Current Temple Square setup. Note in upcoming plans how the structures fronting the Temple at the north and south will be demolished and replaced in different positions in their relationship to the Temple itself. The more modern structures
that now front the Temple on both sides will be removed and new structures with a more historic vibe will be constructed to the sides of the Temple. This will open up the iconic structures approach. Landscaping and water features will also
be redeveloped, again affording the historic Temple improved site lines. Also, a significant part of the redevelopment will be subterranean structures and seismic upgrades.

Church President Russell M. Nelson announced the pioneer-era temple will close December 29, 2019, and will remain closed for approximately four years while undergoing a major structural and seismic renovation. The temple is expected
to reopen in 2024 with a public open house.

“This project will enhance, refresh, and beautify the temple and its surrounding grounds,” said President Nelson. “Obsolete systems within the building will be replaced. Safety and seismic concerns will be addressed. Accessibility will be enhanced
so that members with limited mobility can be better accommodated.”

The surrounding area on Temple Square and the plaza near the Church Office Building will also be affected as existing buildings are demolished and the area undergoes renovation and restoration. The existing annex and temple addition on the
north side, which were built in the 1960s to add needed support facilities and more sealing (marriage) rooms, will be demolished and rebuilt.

What will visitor experience be like during renovation? We now know

SALT LAKE CITY — When the Salt Lake Temple closes for a major, four-year renovation on Dec. 29, Temple Square won’t.

In fact, Temple Square will remain open 365 days a year and is expected to attract more visitors than ever before as the curious flock to watch the construction and see a new film and exhibits at the Conference Center across the street, officials
for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints said Wednesday.

The L.D.S. church also released four new renderings on Wednesday of what the temple renovation will look like when it’s done in 2024, but officials focused on the Temple Square visitor experience during a round of interviews with a large
media contingent in the square’s South Visitors’ Center.

They said the Conference Center will be the hub of vibrant, new activity in a new role as a welcome and visitors center.

“It will be unique and engaging and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” said Tanner Kay, the Temple Square guest experience manager. “The most exciting thing to experience will be to view the temple renovation itself from the vantage point of
the balcony and the roof of the Conference Center. You’ll be able to see over all the construction fences right down into the full excavation of the temple.”

Some 5 million people visit Temple Square each year, making it one of the Nation's biggest tourist attractions. The tourist buses that bring many of those visitors to the area now will arrive on the West Temple Street side of the
Conference Center block.

They will find a new, 17-minute film about the original construction of the temple and its renovation. In new exhibits in the Conference Center lobbies, they will be able to touch some of the artifacts removed from the temple for the renovation and view some of the temple’s artwork.


“We’ll invite tourists to step right off their buses and off the curb and right into the Conference Center theater to view the orientation film as the way to start their visit,” Kay said. “That’s new. We’ve never had an orientation film on Temple
Square before, so we are going to invite all the groups to view the film to start their visit. But guests can choose their own adventure on Temple Square.”

The artifacts and artwork in the exhibits will change and rotate throughout the four-year renovation. Also, the cutaway model of the temple will be relocated from the South Visitors’ Center to the Conference Center balcony lobby, which also
will be home to a new statue of Jesus Christ.

A new audio/visual experience will help visitors to the Conference Center auditorium, which seats 21,000 people and features an organ with 7,708 pipes, feel what it’s like to attend...concerts by the Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square...

...Construction viewing areas will be available around the square, too.

“There will be multiple vistas to see what work is going on,” he said. “People will be able to see the deep excavation and the footings and foundations of the temple.”

Roberts is excited to show off the construction site with the Conference Center as a welcome and visitors center.

“It’s going to be absolutely spectacular,” he said. “You’ll have the opportunity to come down, enjoy the temple construction site, walk over and see the foundation of the temple while we’re working on it. No one’s ever had the chance to see that.
To construction guys, that’s pretty exciting.”

The remodel has two main purposes.

“First of all, seismic stability in the temple concerns the First Presidency and the Brethren long term. We want to make sure that is protected and it will last,” Roberts said. “Secondly, mechanical, electrical and plumbing is 56 to 65 years old. It needs to be replaced. It needs to be updated.”

The reason the foundation and footings will be exposed is because the major part of the renovation is placing the massive, granite temple — the largest Latter-day Saint temple in the world — on a base isolation system.

“What we’re doing is separating the temple, the foundation, from the earth itself with a mobile, moving base isolation system,” Roberts said. “So we’ve got to go all the way down there. We’re going to save the old footings because they are historic. ... We will brace the temple up on the base isolators and separate it from the ground, in essence ... to allow the temple to float and move during a seismic event at a slower rate to preserve it from damage.”

Roberts said church leaders have been considering the base isolator seismic upgrade for nearly 20 years.

“We now think we have the most up-to-date, proven technology,” he said.

The renderings released Wednesday unveiled another driver in the renovation project — history.

Emily Utt, a church historian, has been working since 2011 on the Salt Lake Temple’s history. She is part of a committee that is working to use the renovation as an opportunity to return the temple closer to its original state.

She has studied hundreds of architectural drawings, layers of paint, the insides of walls, the murals and more.

“We want this building to be safe and functional for the next 100 years, but we also want this building to be beautiful for the next 100 years,” she said. “And because this building is so iconic and so important to the L.D.S. church, we want to honor
those who did the original construction. Preserving the building is the very best way we can make this building safe and honor those who came before.

“We hope at the end of this project that if original craftsmen walked through, they would recognize it as their building and say, ‘Oh, I painted that’ or ‘Oh, I put that millwork in.’”

Demolition Breakdown - Crews demolish Temple Square visitors center and wall to prepare for Salt Lake Temple & Temple Square renovation

By Tad Walch for the Deseret News - https://www.deseret.com/faith/2020/1...-temple-square


SALT LAKE CITY — The heavy-duty dig bucket on a CAT excavation tractor began knocking down the South Visitors’ Center on Temple Square on Friday as crews prepared the area for the gargantuan renovation project on the landmark
Salt Lake Temple.

Construction crews also demolished parts of the south wall surrounding Temple Square to give them better access during the project.

They also have removed trees and statues, ...which are being placed in storage along with temple furnishings.

Some trees and vegetation are being recycled. Others are being preserved and will be restored when the project is completed in 2024.

“We are working to carefully preserve some of the trees, transplant them and then replant them at the end of the project,” said Andy Kirby, director of historic temple renovations, in a news release issued Friday. “We will also plant additional
trees when we finish the renovation, so there will be more trees on Temple Square than there were when this project began.”


A tall, 70-year-old Cedar of Lebanon tree is being preserved.

“It’s a special tree,” Kirby said. “It’s beautiful, beloved by many, so we’ll go through great efforts to preserve this tree as we excavate around it.”...

While the temple is closed, Temple Square remains open. Visitors are encouraged to come and watch the work, which soon will include the start of the excavation project to install a base isolation system under the temple for seismic stability.

On Jan. 1, the Conference Center across the street began to serve as a visitors center, a role it will have throughout the renovation. Visitors are encouraged to stop in for new exhibits, a new film about the temple and the renovation, and to
look down into the construction site from the Conference Center roof.

Downtown, Temple Square Renovation Recap & Photo Updates

At a news conference held on April 19, 2019, President Russell M. Nelson announced that the Salt Lake Temple would close on December 29, 2019, for approximately four years of renovation and restoration including improvements to
the surrounding grounds and facilities. The temple is expected to reopen in 2024 when guests will be invited to tour the interior of the iconic building during a public open house. Highlights of the project include the following:


- Structural reinforcements to the walls and roof of the temple will work in conjunction with a base isolation system installed under the massive foundation to mitigate the impact of seismic activity.

- Modern mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems will replace the aging and outdated equipment located throughout the temple.

- The historic interior of the temple will be restored and refreshed, returning to a Victorian-inspired palette of dark woods, rich colors, and patterned fabrics.

- Portions of the solid wall that currently surround Temple Square will be replaced with decorative fences, providing much better views and access to the temple from the north and south.

- The South Visitors’ Center will be demolished and replaced with two smaller visitor pavilions that will not obstruct views of the temple from the south.

- The existing annex and sealing room addition on the north side of the temple, built in the 1960s, will also be demolished and replaced. Two smaller patron pavilions will replace the annex, and the sealing room addition will be
rebuilt slightly wider and more true to the design of the exterior wall that it extends.

- The recommend desk will be located underground, featuring expansive skylights with generous views of the temple above. This area will be accessible from the patron pavilions through a grand hall or by way of a patron tunnel from the
Conference Center parking facility.

- The plaza and landscaping south of the Church Office Building will be repaired and renovated with greater emphasis on the visitor experience.

- Both live and film presentations of religious ceremonies will be available when the temple reopens, with sessions available in 86 languages.

Downtown - Kensingston Tower

With all the other projects going on at the same time, I think we are shy of workers needed for some of these larger projects to run simultaneously.

With a Summer 2021 start, Kensington Tower would be able to utilize possibly the same crew that is currently doing the concrete and steel work for Block 67 Phase 1. Sure, excavation could happen earlier same the drilled supports. But until a team is ready to start the upward construction, we would be left with an empty hole.

Now, I hope I am wrong and would love for this to start sooner.

By Katie McKeller for the Deseret News -

..."Salt Lake City in coming years is expected to see a massive building boom, particularly when it comes to skyscrapers...“Kensington Tower will set the stage for a
live/work/play concept and will rival other major metropolitan areas across the country, helping Salt Lake City recruit new professional talent and attract top companies to Utah,”


A rendering of the proposed Kensington Tower, a 448-foot skyscraper on the northwest corner of State Street and 200 South. If approved, it would become the tallest addition to
Salt Lake City’s skyline. Salt Lake City Planning Commission

...“Poised to become one of Salt Lake City’s most coveted addresses, the Kensington Tower will revolutionize downtown living in Salt Lake City while expanding the downtown skyline,” designers wrote in a project narrative submitted to Salt Lake City’s planning department.

Kensington Tower would feature nearly 680,000 square feet of luxury apartments, a six-level parking structure, an “outdoor urban park,” a clubhouse, a fitness center, a work lounge with conference rooms, a rooftop pool next to a spa and wellness center, a 4,000-square-foot roof terrace with “panoramic views” of the Wasatch Front, and exclusive sky lounge access for penthouse residents, according to planning documents.

The building would be 412 feet, plus an additional 36 feet for a high-speed elevator and mechanical equipment penthouse, according to planning documents.

The tower will feature 380 units, including studios, one- and two-bedroom apartments, which will be “crowned with two levels of exclusive penthouse units,” according to a narrative of the project. It will also feature 40,000 square feet of communal amenities on three different floors to “create a unique vertical urban community,” designers wrote.

Designers also say the tower will feature an “extensive amenity program” with “unparalleled service support,” including 24-hour concierge, package delivery, dry cleaning services, a pet spa and other services “that will make the urban living experience convenient and uniquely luxurious.”

“Kensington Tower will set the stage for a live/work/play concept and will rival other major metropolitan areas across the country, helping Salt Lake City recruit new professional talent and attract top companies to Utah,” designers wrote in the planning documents.

Additionally, developers seek to make Kensington Tower an “exemplar steward of the environment.” Designers say the project will aim to “minimize its carbon footprint” through design, construction and operations and will promote electric vehicles and bicycle share programs. It will also seek LEED Gold Certification for design and construction.

Developers will also explore using “photovoltaic vertical fins” — or new type of solar technology along the side of the building” — with the goal to produce enough solar energy for lighting in all public and communal areas, designers wrote.

Salt Lake City in coming years is expected to see a massive building boom, particularly when it comes to skyscrapers. Utah’s capital’s skyline is poised to add at least six high-rise projects that are in planning or slated to begin construction. The Kensington Tower is the latest proposal, preceded by a 375-foot skyscraper proposed to replace the old Utah Theater.

Salt Lake City residents and visitors can expect a snarl of construction in coming years in the heart of downtown. If approved, the Kensington Tower will be just across the street from a 262-foot, 270-unit residential tower called Liberty Sky at 151 S. State and barely a block away from a 395-foot office building named Tower 8 coming to 95 S. State, directly west of the Harmons grocery store.

Robinson said the site of the Carl’s Jr. drive-thru is a fitting spot for a new Salt Lake skyscraper, right on the east edge of the downtown core and a desirable address for people wanting to live or work in Utah’s capital.

Because of its special height request, Robinson said the city’s new design review process, automatically sending additional height requests to the Planning Commission, will allow more “public scrutiny” for projects like Kensington Tower, noting taller buildings have a “larger impact in a variety of ways on our city” in both scale and housing density.

“This particular project is going to be such a visible contribution to our skyline,” Robinson said. “That has impacts on the image and quality of the city that we want to project beyond just Salt Lake City, but this is an addition to the postcard picture of downtown.”

The project hasn’t yet been scheduled for consideration in front of the Planning Commission, but Robinson said it’s expected in coming months.

Same here Schmoe. That has the potential to be one really beautiful corner when completed, having both the Kensington and the Regent next to each other. It will definitely give 24/7 added life and vibracy to that new section of Regent Street.

Downtown Update - The Patrinely Project

Tony Semarad for the Salt Lake Tribune - July 15thhttps://www.sltrib.com/news/2020/07/...on-starts-new/ - Developers broke ground Tuesday on a 10-story office and retail project in downtown Salt Lake City, called 650 Main. The Phase I glass-clad tower at the southwest corner of Main Street and 600 South will add 332,100 square feet of high-end offices — with large floor plans, 10-foot-high ceilings and copious views — to Utah’s downtown business core, with its first phases set to be completed in early 2022. The project’s backers have a second round of construction upcoming, with an office building of similar size envisioned on adjacent land at 645 W. Temple. The Utah Transit Authority announced in April it will add a new TRAX station nearby, paid for by Salt Lake City, its redevelopment agency and the developers. The new tower has been designed by HOK, a worldwide firm headquartered in St. Louis, and its builders will reportedly aim for what’s known as LEED Gold, a high standard of energy efficiency. In addition to a spacious lobby with seating areas and about 4,600 square feet of space for retail outlets, the new tower will offer tenants an indoor fitness center with locker rooms, bike storage, a private courtyard, conference facilities and both indoor and outdoor restaurant dining. The tower is one of a half-dozen new high-rise projects proposed or under construction in Utah’s downtown core. Work on 650 Main, which has been under discussion for several years, is getting underway in spite of the pandemic after its primary backers — Houston-based developer Patrinely Group and USAA Real Estate, with home offices in San Antonio — announced in March they’d landed a major tenant for the new building.

EnerBank USA is the first tenant to sign for space at 650 Main, a planned 10-story, 326,000-square-foot, Class A office building in downtown Salt Lake City. The bank will occupy 88,900 square feet on the top three floors, starting in early 2022.

Patrinely Group’s Dennis Tarro, along with Aaron Jones, Todd McLachlan and Roman Bernardoof with NKF represented the landlord, a partnership between Patrinely Group and USAA Real Estate. “This location will provide employees more convenient access to public transportation, while offering them excellent amenities and a productive working environment to give our customers the best service possible,” said EnerBank’s Charlie Knadler.

Construction on 650 Main will begin in spring. The property will be designed for LEED Gold certification, with floor plate sizes ranging from 40,000 square feet on the lower floors, to 29,500 square feet on the upper floors. HOK is the designer.

650 South Main

For companies focused on being truly competitive in today’s economy, workspaces have evolved to meet the demands of how the best and brightest collaborate in the workplace. 650 Main, a 10-story, 320,000-square-foot class A office building, is designed to meet these needs, providing dynamic workspaces that can benefit employee recruitment, foster innovation, and support healthy lifestyles. Building features start with oversized light-filled floorplates, tall ceiling heights, comprehensive onsite amenities, and outdoor tenant spaces. But they go on to include uniquely convenient accessibility, ample parking, onsite restaurants, and a location steps away from TRAX Salt Lake City’s light rail system. All this in the heart of downtown Salt Lake City, a city consistently recognized as one of the best in the nation for healthy lifestyles and quality of life. The result is a modern workplace that is connected to it all. 650 Main – a modern office building designed for how the next generation will work.

650 Main offers a desirable downtown location, with numerous hotels, dining, and entertainment spots nearby. Accessibility need not be sacrificed, with a three-minute drive to/from Interstate 80, a 10-minute drive to the airport, and direct accessibility to the TRAX light rail system right outside the front door. Whether it is the morning commute, a business lunch, or an evening workout, 650 Main’s location provides a world of convenient options for employees and visitors.

Central Metro East - Park City's New YOTELPAD

Video At Construction Site - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7DgjLJsMOw

Bringing the Mountain to Modern:

The traditional mountain home is, well, stuck in tradition. Rough-hewn wooden walls, dark and heavy furnishings, cavernous rooms and probably a few dusty stuffed animals staring down in judgment at your Netflix choices. This is the tradition. It’s all so dark, stuffy, and gallingly inefficient.

The modern traveler wants modern convenience and values efficient, thoughtful, even conservative uses of space. When we go someplace like Park City, our lodging should be just right—the Goldilocks of spaces. We came here to ski, to dine, and to make memories with friends and family while we explore the mountains. Thankfully, designers, architects, and developers Berkshire Hathaway like are getting the hint and new projects like YOTELPAD Park City built around the way we actually travel and play and not some antiquated idea of how we should travel and play—with nary a dead animal on the wall.

https://www.skiutah.com/blog/authors...inline-display

The new YOTELPAD, the brainchild of Replay Destinations and Yotel, at the base of the Canyons Village at Park City Mountain puts the 7,300 Acres of the largest ski resort in the United States just outside your door. With 144 units ranging from studio to three bedrooms, the project was thought out to embrace smart design and maximize the square footage and all of it is fully wired with technology and intuitive services to help you focus on playing, not staying. And it’s affordable. YOTELPAD is hotel/condo concept that offers affordable full-ownership options (in the heart of a world-renowned ski resort), which puts luxury modern mountain living within range of the next generation.

Be Social

When not on the mountain and not asleep, it’s time for friends and family and to mingle with other guests. Friendly common areas offer plenty of room to spend time enjoying the time. The social spaces at YOTELPAD are designed to maximize view space of the surrounding mountains with comfortable seating, games for the kids, and food and drink. Gathering places feature soft seating placed around fireplaces. Soak up the sun, watch a movie, shoot pool, or join friends on the view terrace. Unwind by the pool or soak in the hot tub. Or relax with a drink by the fire before your next game of PAC-MAN. Designers at YOTELPAD configured every space to keep the schlepping (the bane of any ski trip) to a minimum. The valet parks your car, the ski valet takes your gear and you can settle in.

https://www.skiutah.com/blog/authors...inline-display


https://www.skiutah.com/blog/authors...inline-display

BE EFFICIENT

Every innovative inch of YOTELPAD was created with efficiency for both time and space. Each private PAD (as the rooms are called) and social zone was designed with serious thought into how the modern traveler can and wants live on the mountain. The PADs all feature clever Italian-made furniture that makes the room work hard for many functions (and keeps prices down). For example, the sofa conceals a pull-down wall bed and storage space. The workspace doubles as a kids’ table and then transforms for bedtime into bunkbeds

https://www.skiutah.com/blog/authors...inline-display

BE FUTURE FORWARD

Technology lets owners and guests get essentials done quickly and effortlessly. The entire property is linked up to the YOTELPAD app where you can do everything from extending your stay to requesting extra towels. Gary Raymond, the managing director of Replay Destinations, YOTELPAD Park City’s developer, believes that, “Technology, innovation, and design are converging to make smart resort homes affordable—and desirable—to a new generation.”

October Construction Site Updates - http://thegoldenerhirsch.com/2019/11...november-2019/

The changing leaves of fall have been stunning this year, and we have already experienced snow in the higher elevations. As construction continues at Goldener Hirsch, we have enjoyed seeing some of Olson Kundig’s architectural details come to life. Truly, this building will be a work of art.

The exterior siding is nearly complete, and finish details for the exterior are coming together, and the Bridge Plaza arrives and installs in the next few weeks. Inside, the common areas are moving along through drywall, and soon we’ll begin to see the finish materials. Most of the residences are through drywall, and we are starting to see tile, cabinetry, flooring, and other interior finish details. Over the next couple of months or possibly weeks, we should have more fun and exciting imagery to share.

November Construction Site Updates

We have already received quite a lot of early snow in late October, and more snow and cold weather now in late November. Park City Mountain Resort has just opened, and Deer Valley is blowing snow and getting ready for their opening date of Saturday, December 7th. At the Goldener Hirsch, the Inn and Restaurant will open on the 14th, along with our Sotheby’s Sales Office for the upcoming Residences at Goldener Hirsch.

The construction is moving along well, and the siding is nearly complete. The Level Six Sky Bridge now has glass installed and is just beautiful to walk across – what a stylistic and fun detail to this amazing architecture! Speaking of bridges, the steel span beams for the Bridge Plaza were just installed on Saturday. This is yet another unique feature that connects the new Residences to the Inn.

On the Interior of the building, common areas are finishing with drywall, and Residences are seeing wood floors, cabinets, base/case trim, and even a couple fireplace mantles.

Construction Update, January 2020

The ski season is well underway at Deer Valley® Resort, and so far, 2020 looks to be keeping up with 2019, one of our best snow years ever. We received over three feet of snow this last week, and more is currently on its way.

At Goldener Hirsch, the building is now fully dried in, and the heat is on, making site tours much more comfortable to conduct. With most of the work now happening on the interior, the substantial amounts of snowfall are not affecting construction as much. Drywall is mostly complete in all units and common areas. Residences are seeing wood floors, cabinets, base/case trim, fireplace mantles, and final painting. We also just started to receive the first few countertops for kitchens and baths.

On the exterior, steel detailing for windows and building corners is being completed, along with the beautiful vertical wood siding. Most of the siding is up, and the scaffolding will come down next week. The bridge plaza’s enclosed walkway will see window installation next week. The unique stylistic details of Tom Kundig’s modern design is taking shape, ensuring that Goldener Hirsch will be a stand-out property in Silver Lake Village.

The Goldener Hirsch Inn remains among the most distinguished ski properties in the world.

Central Metro East - 'Lift Park City' - Construction Completed

VIDEO GALLERY - http://liftparkcity.com/gallery

61 SPACIOUS RESIDENCES

LIFT PARK CITY
With a new gondola connecting the Park City and Canyons ski areas, Park City Mountain becomes the largest ski resort in the US. At its base, Canyons Village is being transformed into a vibrant pedestrian neighborhood of new shops, restaurants, and gathering places. And at the heart of this expanded village is Lift: an intimate collection of modern residences adjacent to the Sunrise chairlift, steps from intriguing boutiques and sunny après patios, with a one-of-a-kind pool deck overlooking Retreat ski-home trail.

The Park City experience starts at Canyons Village, which is being transformed into a vibrant four-season center for recreation, celebration, and exploration. Lift is at the heart of the new village and adjacent to a future high-speed chairlift that gives you quick access to fresh powder. Ski straight to your pool deck’s fire pits and hot tubs, then walk over to the vibrant restaurants, shops, and après-ski scene that are the pulse of Canyons Village. Developed by the world-renowned team that played a key role in the creation of resort villages at Whistler, Mammoth, and Copper Mountain, Lift is every inch a place to call home.
