BendonAdams represented the Crystal Palace Project through the land use process with Aspen's Historic Preservation Commission and received an approval in 2017 allowing for a boutique lodge development and restaurant. It will highlight the historic exterior building elements with entirely new structure, systems, and finishes on the interior. The lodge, comprised of 20 hotel rooms, will offer a full spa, fitness center, pool, restaurant, cafe, and a rooftop terrace with beautiful views of Aspen Mountain. BendonAdams created an outreach and communications plan to provide neighboring businesses and the greater Aspen community with updates on construction and traffic changes throughout the process.
