Luxurious Boutique Hotel Condo Tower Proposed For The New Regent Street

It was predicted by many that with the development of the spectacular multi-billion
dollar City Creek Center, exciting and diverse projects would soon spring
up throughout the Downtown District. A new world class Performing
Arts Center/Theater, 111 Tower and a revived Regent St. continue their
hectic construction schedule to the block immediately south of City Creek.
The excitement continues to build throughout Downtown as dozens of
large and small projects progress through their proposals and
beginning construction phases. Newly announced is this beautiful
boutique hotel tower, which is now accelerating through the approval
process.

Central Metro - Holladay


The following is an exerpt from a KSL article about Rimrock's completed Holladay Village Center.

KSL Article: New Mixed-Use Cottonwood Development Reinvigorates Holladay Community

HOLLADAY — When the recession hit in 2008, communities up and down the Wasatch Front felt the economic tremors.

The timing couldn’t have been worse for the city of Holladay, newly incorporated just nine years earlier and now in the middle of tearing down the old Cottonwood Mall. City Manager
Randy Fitts was worried.

“I think we started to do demolition that summer, and when the bottom fell out, we just thought, well we’ve got some problems,” Fitts said.

Plans for the 57-acre privately owned mall site were immediately put on hold, leaving the city’s hands tied. But Fitts and other Holladay leaders didn’t give up. Earlier this year, Fitts
and Mayor Rob Dahle watched as the Holladay Village Center opened its doors less than a block away from City Hall.

The mixed-use shopping, dining and office center is quickly filling up with boutiques, a salon, bike shop and several popular local restaurants. Andy Evans manages the newest
Caputo’s location.

“We knew that there was demand here in Holladay," Evans said. "Plenty of customers that come downtown that wanted us out here, and so here we are.”

Just across the plaza, Lunatic Fringe stylist Cliff Simons likes the look of the salon’s bottom line and appreciates the convenience for his customers.

“Everybody that lives up on top of the hill have to travel down to the downtown area or Sugar House, so honestly this location is perfect.”

Riverhorse purchases historical Imperial Hotel on Main Street
The building, which has been unused for years, will be turned into a market, event space and a condominium

Old Main, Park City

Bubba Brown, The Park Record
http://www.parkrecord.com/summit_cou...ce=most_viewed

An historic building on Main Street that has long sat dormant is under new ownership that has big plans for the property.

Riverhorse on Main recently bought the Imperial Hotel, at 221 Main St. The building, which the restaurant purchased from Provo-based Westlake Land, LLC., has changed hands multiple times in recent years but has been unused since it last operated as a hotel in 2006, according to The Park Record archives...

Adams said the restaurant plans to open a market on the ground floor of the building, which is more than a century old. He envisions an open, deli-like kitchen where customers can purchase items such as fresh meat.

The next floor will house an event space the restaurant will rent out and use for its own gatherings, Adams said. The restaurant is in the process of renovating the building to move a staircase from the middle of the floorplan to near the northern wall so the space can accommodate about 100 people standing and 60 to 80 people at a seated dinner...

Hi all,
New here. I was just wondering if anybody has heard of the Sandy City Center project, and what is going on with that at the moment. I heard it would have good sized buildings and such. I was just wondering if that is still on.

Downtown Update - 111 Tower - Utah Performing Arts Center and Regent Street - Under Construction














Utah Performing Arts Center and 111 Tower


...Lead architects, Cesar Pelli and Mitch Hirsch explained in detail the design, which will include a three-balcony, opera house configuration for the seating area and a large,
four-story “Winter Garden” lobby with glass exterior facing Main St. They also touted the fact that the theater building will have no “back”. With pedestrian passages from Main St. to Regent St,
a public plaza in front of the truck loading docks, and a rejuvenated Regent St full of nightlife and daytime action, the NPAC will be a driving force in activating downtown, on the blocks to
the immediate south of the spectacular new City Creek Center...

City unveils new plans for downtown Regent Street by 111 Tower & EPAC Theater

Jason Lee, Deseret News

http://www.deseretnews.com/article/8...y-theater.html

Becker and other city administrators unveiled the new schematic design plans for the Regent Street block located on the east side of the new Eccles Theater, between 100 South and
200 South.


Artist rendering of view from 200 South of proposed Regent Street redevelopment project aimed at making the mid-block connector between City Creek and
the Gallivan Center a place to “gather, discover and connect.” (Salt Lake City)

The project would include retail and dining establishments, a public plaza, along with custom landscape architecture throughout the common areas. While the street would still be
accessed by motor vehicle traffic, the area would also be accessible to pedestrians and could be converted to pedestrian-only access for events such as concerts, Becker explained.

“Since I took office, a primary object is to make downtown a gathering place for the region — and have it be a true welcoming environment for people seeking all kinds of activities that you
can really only find in the downtown area,” he said. “We see this as part of what we are doing to make this the 'cultural core' of the region.”...

...The redevelopment project is aimed at attracting more people into downtown and generating a distinctive experience that can’t happen anywhere else, said STRUCK agency's Brent Watts,
who is part of the creative design team for the Regent Street project.

“We want to create a 'branded' experience,” he said, adding that besides gathering and dining, the corridor will include local artists and local shops.

“We want sizeable, small-scale retail shops on the street,” Watts said. “That’s important.”...

The first floor that fully hangs over the theater is floor 5, so you can see that the 23rd floor is mostly framed out and the bars sticking up are the top of the 24th floor. The elevator is topped out at 24. I think I heard (read on this forum, rather) that the crown will add an additional 27 feet.

I still wish the tower would get as tall as the crane is now.

Downtown Adj. - World Class Soccer Complex Opens To The Public

"It will serve Salt Lake City and the region's demand for better soccer facilities for decades to come."

The 16-field complex will accommodate soccer, rugby, lacrosse and youth football competitions. It features a flexible stadium field and room to host multiple, simultaneous events and tournaments.

Becker said the facility creates great new playing space for local athletic teams as well as a venue capable of hosting competitions and tournaments for Salt Lake City high schools, youth and adult club teams and regional events.

"It's been one of those labors of love for me and for so many people who had the initial dream and have worked so hard on this," the mayor said. "It's exciting to see it come to fruition, and it's going to be even more exciting to see kids and others playing on those fields, enjoying — outside Rio Tinto Stadium — the best soccer fields and complex in the state."

This weekend, the Utah Youth Soccer Association is hosting a regional tournament at the Regional Athletic Complex with teams from Utah, Arizona, Colorado, Nevada and New Mexico competing for a spot in the Far West regionals next summer.

The Cairns will feature new apartments and condominiums, restaurants, office space and new retail space, in addition to the multimillion-dollar South Towne Center renovation, she added.

“It plays right into the 'mountain meets urban' concept of our overall city center,” Martin said. The environment elevates the mixed-use elements of office, retail and residential with the amenities expected of an active urban lifestyle, she said.

“The mall renovation is huge for Sandy city and for the state of Utah,” Martin said...
