Conference Space ............... The cost of the conference space will be funded by the development. The conference space will be made available for use by the rest of the Vail lodging community for 50% of the year under a "Use Plan" or association membership program. Town of Vail Financial Involvement ........... We understand the Town of Vail has established a Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District for Lionshead. At this level of planning, estimating the project costs is not an exact science. However, we believe, based on knowledge of construction costs from our other ongoing projects in the Vail Valley and with Kiewit's input, the above Total Costs represent a reasonable estimate for the Public Improvements Listed. u fl 1 Given these cost estimates, Plan A above will require the smallest amount of TIF funding (it is possible after more detailed planning that the development will be able to pay for all the public improvements in Plan A and the development may not require any TIF funding). Plan B and C, however, will likely require TIF as a funding source. ~J`-- .: ~ is East West Partners A Colorado Company i East West Partners is the company suited to becoming your partner in creating an ' architecturally unified Vail and a more unified retail experience (One Vail).

The Open~Hilhvootl Partnership 1 1 1 1 1 Part 1: Vai 's Renaissance "One Town" V Vhile the Town of Vail's interest in redeveloping the Lionshead Parking Structure may have been prompted in part by the utilitarian need to replace an aging parking garage, the this redevelopment project represents an opportunity to provide an array of other benefits that go far beyond just replacing parking spaces. The Town should be commended for looking beyond just the replacement of this parking facility and asking the question - Can the redevelopment of this site improve he aesthetics of the Town? Can it strengthen Vail's cultural and social fabric? Can it bolster the Town's economic base? Can it be a catalyst for addressing other community-wide improvements? The answer o each of these questions is a resounding "yes" Not only does the Lionshead Parking Structure represent one of the largest, if not the largest development site in Vail, it is in a very strategic and opportune location. Open Hospitality Partners and Hillwood Capital (Open/Hillwootl) proposed plans for this 'redevelopment will provide a very positive resolution to a number of long-standing town goals. Foremost among these are the replacement of the existing parking structure, an increase in public day-skier parking, a dramatic increase in "live" beds, the development of a retaillpedestrian street along East Lionshead Circle and a host of other community benefits all designed tb further the goals of the Lionshead Redevelopment Master Plan. The redevelopment of the Lionshead Parking Structure represents another piece of °Vail's Renaissance", a recent period of renewal and revitalization that started with the Antlers, the Tivoli Lodge, :the Sonnenalp Resort, the Vail Ullage Streetscape project and Vail Plaza and continueswith theArrabelle, Vail's Front Doorand the Four Seasons. Equally importantto whatwill be happening in and around the Lionshead Parking Structure site is what this project means to the built environmenfthroughout Vail. Specifically, what the retlevelopmenEof this site can do to further Vail's return to becoming "One Town" - a concept of "One Vail/One Town" that evolved during the design process for Vail's Front Door and continued during the design and review of The Arrabelle. Vail, cdnceptually and as a real place, is a town all Coloradans can be very proud of. It is the sort of locale dreamt about by those hot fortunate enough to live near it. It is somewhat amusing then to refiect upon its storied architectural past and to understand where it stands today - as a town and as one of the world's premiers ski and leisure destination resorts. It has, after-all, had ideas thrust upon it over the years with regard to its architectural character and its ultimate built form which may not have been considered had its relevance in the resort world been fully known. To understand what might and should occur today and in the future, it is helpful to look briefly at our past. sneaa Pak lclure K ~e Inpment The open ~ Hilhvood Partnership rte, ~ `- ' ,.: ~, u -. ~.~, X~~~a~, K,~ ':~. r [continued] In its earliest years the development of Vail was done by individuals with a very clear idea as to what it wanted to be. As is widely understood, the initial "design theme' for Vail was the result of the impulses of Vail's original founders -Bridge Street and Vail Ullage was to incorporate the romance and nostalgia of the Bavarian Alpine aesthetic they had observed in Europe. Early development in Vail Village held true to this vision. But as Vail evolved over the next 40 years it moved away from a single, relatively consistent notion as a "themed" built environment into a relatively disjointed and loosely connected collection of two or mare different and distinct places. The developers of the Lionshead portion of this linear mountain town strayed from the continuatiori of the style set on Bridge Street and in doing so created a place in stark contrast to what our founder envisioned. Lionshead subscribed to the then-popular, somewhat anti-stylistic design approach of International Modern -seemingly rejecting the theme of the original Vail 1/Ilage in favor of "doing their own thing". Urifortunately for the Town of Vail, this led to a sort of architectural schizophrenia severe enough to lead to the perception that Vail Ullage and Lionshead (and subsequently both East and West Vail as well) were separate places along the I-70 spine. In addition to conflicting architectural expressions, these distinct areas within Vail lacked any cohesive identity which often times created confusion amongst guests to the town. Vail was one town in name; but in reality a collection of separate places. 4240 Architecture lnc. in its recent work with Vail Resorts and others, and now with the design ahd development teams associated with the proposal to redevelop the Lionshead Parking Structure; has expressed and continues to support its belief that this current period of renewal and transition presents a nearly unbelievable.opportunity, if nota responsibility, for this world-renowned town to renew and strengthen its commitment to its founder's original vision. We believe that these past decisions should be accepted and that Vail's Renaissance should move forward with reliance on Vail's stylistic precedents. It is believed fully by this design team that the current renewal period gives Vail the chance to become one place again -The One Town. of Vail, Colorado. The redevelopment of the Lionshead Parking Structure can play a major role in the notion of One Town-One Vail by yielding to the Lionshead Master Plan-motivated and VailVillage- inspireddesigns ofpedestrian oriented streets, community retail environments, fun and fantastic gathering places, inhabitable squares with swirling vibrancy, cafes, hotels, alleys and muses, in the heart of the World Class resort town. ing Sruciure R~fleveloFrnent The Open ~ Hillwood Padnership West Vail Masterplan The ArraBelle at Vail Square Rucksack Building Vail Village ~ 7 ~ 1.~.

The firm was founded in ig88 by Howard F. Elkus FAIR, RIBA and David P. Manfredi AIA who the master planning and design of a number of projects that have set the standard for mixed-use across the country. As a leading designer ofthis project type, we have been personally selected by industry leaders around the country to realize their business goals and make their visions into realities. We attribute our success to three important priori- ties. First, our designers share the passionate conviction that sophisticated urban design principles must inform every aspect of the project -our mixed-use work stands apart from that of other architectural firms because our emphasis is on '"place-making" that begins and ends with contextu- allysensitive urban planning. Second, our ability to listen carefully to our clients' goals allows us to translate these ideas into financially successful realities. Third, we are experienced in successfully navigating the complex permitting and other regulatory processes necessary to the success of any project. We have worked with most of the top retailers in the country and know how to create a mix of retail spaces that wilk support good business and desirable environments. Many of our mixed-use projects have been bestowed with Urban Land Institute's, Award of Excellence. These projects include. CityPlace in West Palm Beach, Florida ,The Grove, in Las Angeles, California, The Shops at Columbus Circle at Time Warner Center in New York City, and University Square at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. Additional award winning mixed use projects include Downtown Disney, The Peninsula Chicago Motel and Shops at 7~0 ~iorth Michigan Avenue in Chicago, Illinois, Pacific Place in Seattle, Washington, and Copley Place and The Heritage on the Garden, both in Boston, Massachusetts. Whether a new neighborhood along the waterfront, asorely-needed new town center, or a high-end shopping and dining mega in the heart of New York City, Elkus Manfredi`s mixed-use projects create vibrant, pedestrian•friendlydestinations inwhich tolive, work, shop, and entertain. In each case, the influence of these dynamic spaces spreads beyond the projects themselves to knit together khe fabric oftheir surroundings, revitalize adjacent communities, and become engines for the developments of the future.

Hls goal was to build the premier urban pedestrian retail center in the country -atop quality, family oriented destina lion where people gather, perhaps to shop in the array of beautiful stores, or perhaps to simply stroll down Main Street, ride the trolley, and attend the annual Christmas tree lighting. In a city that largely ignores its pedestrians, The Grove celebrates the pedestrian experience. Working closely with Caruso Architects, Elkus Manfredi provided master planning and design for The Grove. Its enormously successful commercial component, anchored by Nordstrom's, includes flagship stores for national retailers and local merchants, restaurants, office space, amulti-screen theatre, and aneight-level parking garage. Imbued with a distinctly European aesthetic, every design element works to build a strong and spirited sense of place: the diverse colors, textures, and materials of the variously-scaled building facades; the charm of Main Street; the slde street's European propor lions; and Town Square's pond, grassy park, pedes~ Irian bridge, and kiosk cafes. This isplace-making at its best, with a Focus not only on creating powerful retail statements, but also welcoming public spaces for all to enjoy.
