We are well known for our tall majestic mountains here in Vail, Colorado in the center of the Rockies. Bobby Ginn of the Ginn Development Company which has build excellent resorts around the country may end up with the tallest building in the Vail Valley to match the architecture in the awe some Canadian Rockies. Adjacent to the Vail ski mountain The Ginn Development Company, is proposing to build 500 homes, 1200 condominiums, a private golf course and a private ski resort near the small mining town of Minturn Colorado. Minturn is about 10 minutes west of Vail Colorado. In April of this year, the Town Council will vote on annexing Ginn’s property into Minturn.
Ginn is proposing a building which could be as high as 195 feet tall. This would be 60 feet higher than the tallest building in all of the Vail Valley. Originally Ginn said the tallest he would go would be 150 feet. The building which would be near Bolts Lake would get its architectural inspiration from the Banff Springs Hotel in Alberta Canada. It would house no more than 702 condominiums, ranging from studios to four bedrooms, offices, restaurants, retail shops and a gondola which would take you to the private ski resort. 13 buildings have been proposed to be built near Bolts Lake; this would be the tallest and is currently being called “The Icon”.
You’ll be hearing a lot more about this project and for a long time. This is no short term here and gone development.
