Steamboat Homes

Construction is set to begin this week, improving the structure and layout of the base of the Steamboat Ski Resort. ‘Tentatively, work that could happen this summer includes building the first segment of the snow-melted promenade, including pavers, from Torian Plum Plaza to the Sheraton Steamboat Resort property line…The promenade would continue as a durable concrete path all the way to One Steamboat Place. In addition, the first segment of Burgess Creek with a small waterfall and a pond would be built in the summer and fall.’

I think that this a very efficient solution. The concrete-surfaced path will be durable, and it’s OK if you plow it and salt it. And this is only the currently budgeted aspect of the project. To finish off the project in the future there will be fire pits, two bridges over the creek and public art, further tying together the base of the mountain.

With these new improvements to the base, in addition to the opening of the Truffle Pig and the completion of One Steamboat Place and Edgemont, the Steamboat Ski Resort has seen a complete remodeling of the base area. Still designed with Steamboat’s heritage and western influences in mind, the improvements will add to the beauty of the resort while hopefully improving everyone’s experience.

If you have any questions about the updates to the base area, feel free to contact me. I am an active member of the Urban Renewal Area Advisory Committee and would love to answer any questions you have.
