June construction update

Former water treatment facility before demolition

The Park City water-treatment plant just off Three Kings Drive was well known for an architectural feature resembling a water tower. The treatment plant,
including the architectural feature, was demolished as City Hall prepared to build a new treatment plant at the same location. Photo by Tanzi Propst/Park Record

Jay Hamburger Reporting for the Park Record - In the early 1990s, amid Park City’s great population boom, leaders were attempting to ensure municipal services kept up with the growth. The ability to provide water suitable for drinking was crucial to the growth, but it was already established by then that one of the important water sources, the Spiro Tunnel on the edge of Thaynes Canyon, produced water with contaminants like arsenic, thallium, iron and manganese. City Hall officials of that era opted to tap the Spiro Tunnel, dating to the silver-mining era, and needed to blend and then treat the water before it was put into the system. Park City in 1993 debuted the water-treatment plant for the Spiro Tunnel. On the exterior, it was an architectural outlier in the neighborhood. On the interior, the pipes and instruments made it one of the municipality’s unique buildings...


Former Treatment Facility pre-demolition. A new treatment plant is being built at the same location. The construction commenced after the Sundance Film Festival. The expected completion date is in early 2023.

“For its time, it was very unique architecturally,” said Michelle DeHaan, City Hall’s water quality and treatment manager and a key staffer in the efforts to build the new treatment plant.

The Spiro Tunnel treatment plant served a critical purpose in the growth era. The contaminant levels in the water from the tunnel needed to be lowered before the water was put into the system. The early strategy was to blend the water from Spiro Tunnel with water from another source, reducing the contaminant concentrations. Officials eventually wanted to use more water from the Spiro Tunnel, though, and chose to treat the water from that source instead of tapping the strategy of blending on a long-term basis.

The opening of the treatment plant in 1993 assisted as Park City addressed the contaminants. The reduction of arsenic in the drinking water was especially notable since it carries such negative associations for its effects on people and wildlife.

The arsenic level in the water from the Spiro Tunnel in 1993 was 60 parts per billion, according to the municipal government. The drinking-water standard of that era was 50 parts per billion of arsenic and it was reduced over time to 10 parts per billion. The Spiro Tunnel water treatment plant at the time of its closure reduced the figure to 2 parts per billion. The treatment plant reduced the arsenic levels with a filter that DeHaan describes as a sand-like substance with a magnesium base.

“The city was a real pioneer at that time,” DeHaan said, calling the plant a “huge success.”

The new treatment plant is one of the projects in an approximately $100 million set of upgrades to the waterworks system. The work will be funded through a long-term increase to water rates of approximately 3% annually.

It will treat drinking water for arsenic, lead, antimony and thallium. It will treat water to be released into streams for cadmium, mercury, zinc and the four others. The stream-release standards are more stringent than those regulating drinking water.

The plant will treat all the water from the Judge Tunnel and up to 100% of the Spiro Tunnel water. According to the municipal government, the Spiro Tunnel plant that will be demolished treated 1,000 gallons of water per minute exclusively from that tunnel while the new one will have a 5,000-gallon-per-minute capacity for water from the Judge Tunnel, the Spiro Tunnel and Thiriot Springs.

Update, Downtown Adj., West - The Depot District

Alta Depot Apartments

https://i1.wp.com/www.buildingsaltla...87%2C633&ssl=1





My reasoning - Part 1: Bad Surroundings

1) This particular part of the city was already limited by the severe barriers to walkability on the west side due to the freeway doubled up with the train tracks. Both of these elements are typically seen as negatives for redevelopment, as most people don't want to live, work, play, and be outside near either of these things.

2) The development of The Gateway furthered this problem, by completely ignoring the west side of the project by providing little in the way of accessibility and no mid-block accesses. It acts as a relatively severe wall against the west side of the neighborhood and makes it more difficult to create a complete neighborhood and walkable community.

3) The first phase of the development had no requirements set on it for midblock access, and therefore it also acts as an additional barrier, and prevents the mid-block access from actually making it to 500 West.

4) Up until its closure, the negative impact that The Road Home had on the neighborhood's prospects was clear. The first phase of this project was only moved forward AFTER the city announced the plans to close the shelter. However, the negative reputation the area had developed resulted in the first group of developments taking on a somewhat fortress-like feel with basically no focus on street engagement.

5) The roads in this particular section have been in absolutely horrible condition for some time, and desperately need to be redone for it to become a more inviting and walkable area.





My reasoning - Part 2: This Project

6) The addition of the mid-block (while somewhat underwhelming), shows the city has already been improving and trying to push for positive changes. The access would also help to benefit the two other projects that it runs between (Centro Civico & Casa Milagro).

7) I am most upset that the project still includes so much parking (project calls for a 1.3 stall per unit ratio (zoning limits to 0.5 stall per unit)), since it is literally a block from Salt Lake Central Station and the Old Greektown Station. This is absolutely not okay, and the city shouldn't give them the parking exceptions.



Part 3: The Future

8) The city should use this project as a learning experience, and make changes to the GMU zoning with things such as raising height mins and maxes and set min requirements on mid-block accesses.

9) The neighborhood itself still has tons of potential, with plenty of land to the north and west to create a more mixed-use development in addition to the station center plans by the RDA (whenever that actually happens (seriously what is taking so long)) to the south).

I doubt very much that the big exception that the Alta Depot project wants to the parking requirements will be granted, so I don't think it will be constructed as shown. Some of the members of the planning commission will also take the opportunity to lambast other aspects of the design, so hopefully that leads to some general design improvements later on.

Agree Atlas, particularly about the parking. That said, I really appreciated Blah_Amazing's civil breakdown of the project, which can open it up for constructive discussion and tweaks. Hopefully, you're right about the planning commission. It will be interesting to follow the project and see how it evolves.

Downtown Update - Timeline, April 5th & June 20th - The Birdie Apartments

Pre Construction site. Always great to get rid of those Downtown surface parking lots!

https://i1.wp.com/www.buildingsaltla...View.png?ssl=1


Isaac Riddle Reports @ https://www.buildingsaltlake.com/com...town-building/ The Birdie, will be six stories with 70 residential units. The Birdie will top
out at just under 85 feet, 15 feet under the minimum height requirement of 100 feet for corner parcels in the D-1 (Central Business District) zoning district. The project will replace a surface parking lot on 0.34 acres.

Planning staff determined that the intent of the zoning requirements was to ensure that corner buildings have prominence at the intersection. Staff argued that The Birdie would have prominence based on its planned ground floor
activation, large balconies and architectural relationship to the intersection’s two historic buildings, the Stratford Hotel (2nd and 2nd) building and First Methodist Episcopal Church.

“I feel like 2nd and 2nd is a really important corner,” said Jake Williams of CW Urban. “We really wanted to be inspired by the neighborhood. These buildings all have eclectic textures.”

Williams told the commission that CW Urban wanted The Birdie to compliment the mix of historic and contemporary buildings in the area. To do this, the project will have dark-framed windows that are common on this stretch of
200 South. The ground floor will also be visually different from the upper levels with a lighter shade of concrete to create a greater emphasis on the street level features and different building materials.

Downtown Update - The Magnolia - Salt Lake - 65-unit housing complex

Effort focuses on transition out of shelters

File Article: By Katie McKellar for the Deseret News - https://www.deseret.com/utah/2019/12...ortive-housing

SALT LAKE CITY — Salt Lake City is getting 65 more units to help house some of the most vulnerable among the homeless. Leaders broke ground Monday on The Magnolia, a permanent supportive housing facility to serve up to 65 single men and women with on-site services to help them transition out of shelter and into housing...“We will soon have 65 units available for those most in need,” said Salt Lake City Mayor Jackie Biskupski. “What is truly special is that these units, these spaces of opportunity, will not be on the margins of our city, but right here in the heart of our city, amongst a mixed income development, demonstrating that Salt Lake City is truly a place for everyone.”,,,“For the past four years, Salt Lake City housing experts have worked tirelessly to address the affordable housing crisis that we are facing, never losing sight of the idea that every unit we bring online represents a life that will forever be changed,” Biskupski said, crediting her staff with helping build over 2,500 affordable housing units during her administration.


Former Salt Lake City Mayor Jackie Biskupski speaks at the groundbreaking for The Magnolia, a new 65-unit permanent supportive housing complex for people who have experienced
homelessness, in Salt Lake City on Monday, Dec. 30, 2019. The facility, owned by Shelter the Homeless and operated by the Road Home, will serve single men and women. Scott G Winterton, Deseret News


The Magnolia — developed by Cowboy Partners, owned by Shelter the Homeless and operated by the Road Home — will be the Road Home’s newest addition to its housing program, which currently includes 201 units at Palmer Court, 32 units at the Wendell Apartments, and hundreds of other stand-alone supportive housing units and single-family dwellings throughout Salt Lake County.

The Magnolia was made possible through a variety of deals and funding sources, including a $1.5 million Salt Lake City Housing Trust Fund loan, a $12-a-year land lease from Salt Lake City, over $10.5 million in tax credit equity, $2 million from the Olene Walker Housing Loan Fund, and $1.3 million from Zions Bank in short-term financing...

...What we know is that we need The Magnolia, and we need an even greater array of types of deeply affordable and supportive housing in order to see the success that we have to have in our newly launched homeless services system,” Flynn said.

The “overarching vision” of the new system and the new homeless resource centers is to ensure homelessness is “rare, brief and nonrecurring,” Flynn said, calling for continued commitment from state, local and federal leaders to invest in “all kinds of supportive housing,” including types that haven’t even been thought of yet.

“The Magnolia will help our community achieve these goals by providing refuge and relief to the men and women who have experienced long and chronic homelessness,” Flynn said. “Individuals who have been through incredible trauma in their lives, who are living with a disabling condition and are seeking housing with support they can access on-site.”...

It looks like the block is set to become even more dense. Clearwater hopes to submit designs for an 85 foot,
140 unit residential project to the city soon enough for a late 2019 construction start.

Salt Lake City’s newest project, the Paper Box Lofts, will include 195 apartments and an ‘automobile vending machine’


https://www.sltrib.com/news/2019/03/...-citys-newest/
Developers began Tuesday to convert an old mid-block industrial site in downtown Salt Lake City into a project known as Paper Box Lofts, which will have three residential high rises, retail spaces, a visually
striking open plaza and a unique automated parking system.

Officials with Utah-based ClearWater Homes and PEG Development broke ground on the 1.99-acre property at about 340 West 200 South, just south of the Utah Jazz’s Vivint Smart Home Arena. When done,
the project will include 195 apartments.

Under an agreement with the city’s Redevelopment Agency, which has helped subsidize the project, developers will keep 36 apartments affordable to residents making 60 percent of the area median income.


Sixty percent of the area median income would be $31,700 in annual earnings for an individual, $36,200 for a household of two people and $40,700 for a household of three, according to data from Salt Lake City.

With its affordable housing, new parking, green space and midblock pedestrian walkways, Mayor Jackie Biskupski said Paper Box Lofts “will benefit our whole community.”

The project is also expected to extend the city’s downtown core further westward and improve pedestrian access from the traditional downtown to The Gateway. Salt Lake City-based ClearWater and PEG,
based in Provo, said the first residences of Paper Box Lofts are expected to be completed by spring of 2021.

Officials with ClearWater and PEG praised the help provided by city officials and the RDA in overcoming challenges with the property’s long, rectangular shape in designing what ClearWater CEO Micah Peters called
“a multifamily project we haven’t seen in this city before.”

Downtown’s latest housing project draws its name from Utah PaperBox, a privately owned packaging company founded in 1914 that occupied the site until it relocated in 2013 to new headquarters
at 920 South 700 West.

The PaperBox property, which is adjacent to a light-rail station, runs the east-west length of that block and has frontage on both 300 West and 400 West, giving it the equivalent of “two front yards,”
according to city documents.

One of those, the development’s east frontage on 300 West, will feature an open plaza with prominently displayed public art, serving “as a type of ‘calling card’ or ‘stamp’ for the entire project by providing
an engaging and colorful mural” painted on the side of its main parking structure, city documents say.

ClearWater and PEG have contracted with VCBO Architecture in Salt Lake City for design of the PaperBox project. Rimrock Construction is the builder.

The project is a leap forward for the Depot District, a westside area spanning Salt Lake Central Station and land west of The Gateway and designated by the city as blighted and in need of redevelopment.

ClearWater and PEG say the Paper Box Lofts’ first building, on 300 West, will have 95 residential units, and the second, on 400 West, will have 85 units. The third, smaller structure will have four residences.

Nearly half those will be one bedrooms, with the rest studio and two-bedroom apartments. Up to 14 units in the larger buildings will provide both working and living space, known as live-work or flex apartments.

Paper Box Lofts will also boast roughly 146 parking stalls, with about 96 of stalls those built into a large, multi-level parking structure designed to automatically stack and retrieve cars dropped off by their drivers.

Peters likened the system to “an automobile vending machine” that will essentially stack cars seven levels high. This is thought to be the first time such an automated parking system, made by an Oakland
company called CityLift, has been deployed in Salt Lake City.

Councilwoman Amy Folwer, who is also chair of the RDA board, called the new system “incredibly exciting” and said it could help the city meet a range of parking needs downtown.

ClearWater Homes has built several recent projects in the downtown area near the PaperBox site, including Broadway Lofts, just north of Pioneer Park, and Paragon Station, a 38-unit luxury condominium project
just south of the Utah PaperBox site.

PEG Development is owner and developer of two new hotels, Hyatt House and Marriott Courtyard, north of the PaperBox parcel, as well as the Milagro Apartments, at the southwest corner of 200 West and
200 South.

Downtown Update - Hyatt Regency, Convention Center Hotel Timeline

March 10th

Construction on the hotel started Jan. 13 and the grand opening is scheduled for October 2022.

Jason Lee for the Deseret News...Salt Lake County officials, in conjunction with Atlanta-based real estate developer Portman Holdings, broke ground Friday on the building, which the Hyatt Hotels Corp.
will manage and operate as the new Hyatt Regency Salt Lake City. The new hotel will be located at the corner of 200 South and West Temple in downtown Salt Lake City, adjacent to the Salt Palace Convention Center.

Scheduled to open in October 2022, the $377-million project will be partially financed through the Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy program, which allows for specialty financing to enable green energy design and implementation,
a news release stated. The 700-plus room hotel will be among the first “ground-up” developments to utilize the program in the Beehive State...

...“It gives us another layer of sophistication when it comes to attracting bigger and better shows to the state of Utah that helps the entire area. Utah’s going to take a better step in terms of prominence on the national stage because of a
facility like this,” he said. “People that hadn’t considered the state before are now going to say, ‘I need to look at Utah, I need to be in Utah for these conventions.’ That’s what kind of prominence this new center is going to give us.”

The 686,784-square-foot, 26-story hotel will include 700 guest rooms and 60,000 square feet of meeting space, as well as two separate restaurants on the first and sixth floors and a lobby bar. The sixth-floor restaurant will sit adjacent to
an outdoor area with a swimming pool, as well as a 7,500-square-foot outdoor terrace for events and other activities.

The project will be directly connected to the Salt Palace Convention Center to provide convenience for convention attendees, Baisiwala said...

...“This hotel is built directly into the convention center, which makes it exceptionally easy for the convention attendees to go in and out from their hotel rooms into the convention center,” he said. “Perhaps more importantly, it has a lot
of suites — big rooms where VIPs can be housed. And it also has a lot of meeting space which augments the number of meeting rooms of the Salt Palace.”

Downtown Update, Block 67 Development Timeline

Downtown Salt Lake City to get a $15 million underground parking garage

By Tony Semerad, The Salt Lake Tribunehttps://www.sltrib.com/news/2019/12/...city-approves/

Salt Lake City has approved a way to pump $15 million into building a huge subterranean parking garage for Block 67, an upcoming ambitious residential and hotel project on the western edge of the city’s downtown.

The agreement, backed Tuesday by the City Council in its role overseeing the city’s Redevelopment Agency (RDA), clears a major hurdle for what is to be known as The West Quarter, a 6.45-acre development bounded by
100 South and 200 South from 200 West to 300 West.



(Rendering by The Ritchie Group) A rendering of The Ritchie Group's proposed Block 67 development in Salt Lake City, as though looking north along 300 West...[/CENTER]



Developers with Salt Lake City-based The Ritchie Group and Garn Development Co. in Layton plan to build more than 650 dwellings, two hotels, an office tower, retail shops, a tree-lined street cut through the block and an underground
parking garage with more than 1,200 stalls.


With its four towers and extensive amenities, to be built in two phases, The West Quarter project will push the center of the city’s urban core west, with more robust pedestrian connections between the existing downtown and The Gateway and
Vivint Smart Home Arena farther west.

“It really is a good project,” Councilman Charlie Luke said Tuesday. “It really is going to do a lot for the city and especially for that part of the city in terms of redevelopment."...

...Ryan Ritchie, a principal in The Ritchie Group, has said the underground parking garage is integral to the project’s overall financial success...The loan agreement sets up a legal mechanism for the city to give the developers the $15 million in
money for the parking garage, then lets the developers pay it back over time as their project generates additional tax money. Salt Lake City’s RDA will, in turn, pass those payments back to the county...

Jacobsen is partnering with The Ritchie Group and Garn Development to build Phase I of The Block 67 Project. The West Quarter, a multi-use development that will help define the emerging sports and entertainment district in downtown Salt Lake City.
The project — adjacent to Vivint Smart Home Arena — will feature more than 650 residential units, a mid-block street with access to 200 South and 300 West, and a subterranean parking garage. The scope of work also includes more than
100,000 square feet of retail space, 430,000 square feet of office space and a 271-room hotel.

I can't wait for the 2 CCH cranes to also go up. 6 tower cranes up and working From State Street to 3rd West and South Temple to 2nd South.

My wife did point out to me today as we drove around downtown that there are many work trucks from out of state license plats at the various projects. I thought that this was nice in that we are pulling workers from other states for our projects.

Update, State Street at 1700 South





Isaac Riddle Reports - Full Article @ https://www.buildingsaltlake.com/cou...capitol-motel/

Another crime-prone motel is poised to be redeveloped into a mixed-use, mixed-income project... The Salt Lake City Council, acting as the Board of Directors for the Redevelopment Agency of Salt Lake City, approved a $3.2 million for Housing Assistance Management Enterprise (HAME) to purchase and develop four parcels on the 1700 South block of State Street.

“The entire community is excited about this project, we hope it’s the first of four or five similar projects along State Street,” said Councilmember Erin Mendenhall(now newly elected Mayor)

in collaboration with the Housing Authority of Salt Lake City (HASLC), wants to build a four-story, mixed-use project with 108 units. The units will have a mix of 40 studio, 60 one-bedroom and eight two-bedroom apartments, 67 percent of which will be income-restricted.

The project will also include 1,030 square feet of ground-floor commercial space that would initially be used as community space but later converted to a commercial use as the demand for commercial increases in the area.
