The project will open in Summer 2021 and is the highest construction project in the U.S., on one of the world’s most visited mountains.
The project is a collaboration between Baltimore-based GWWO and Colorado Springs-based RTA Architects and was recently featured in the Architects’ Newspaper. Read the full article.
