The Larry H. Miller Company now controls at least an additional 18.7 acres of land just steps from where it hopes to build a Major League Baseball stadium...
...The firm quickly moved to grab several parcels of the remaining land that isn’t owned by Rocky Mountain Power, a subsidiary owned by Warren Buffett’s conglomerate.
Its holdings now include the site of a former Ramada Inn, which the Miller group picked up via a long-term lease, a corner that was once slated to become a Starbucks drive-thru, and a former freight logistics hub.
All told, the Miller Group is now the second-largest landholder in what has been branded the Power District, and there’s one remaining property that could come up for sale soon.
Building Salt Lake reported on Jan. 12 that the Millers had recently bought the 12 acres that had been home to the ABF Freight shipping and logistics hub at 55 S. Redwood Rd. Two weeks later, on Jan. 29, the Millers signed an agreement with Keith Warburton to take over his $5.7 million long-term ground lease of a site once home to a Ramada Inn, county records show...
...The acquisitions follow the company’s quick moves to reach an apparent agreement with Rocky Mountain Power on carrying out a master plan for the 100 acres known as the Power District and secure a subsidy from the Utah Legislature to build the stadium and attract the team.
