The Silverthorne Pulse

The excitement is palpable as Sam and Rosie bound toward the door to welcome us to their new home in the Smith Ranch neighborhood.  Rosie is giving slobbery kisses as new home owners KelLee and Roger Abdella explain that the pups are loving the soft carpeting to roll on and additional play space.  KelLee and Roger are most excited about the in- floor heating, garage space and gear storage. The Abdella’s are the first residents of the new Smith Ranch neighborhood, a 50-acre neighborhood with an estimated 180 – 220 …

As 2019 gets underway, Silverthorne’s most noted development projects are moving full steam ahead with some exciting milestones on the horizon. Milender White, the development team behind Fourth Street Crossing, recently submitted its final site plan to the Town of Silverthorne. Based on past Council feedback, the team made a few adjustments to initial plans, most notably in the architecture, which now has a more unique, mountain-modern feel; the programming has not changed. The final plan will go through another review with Town staff, a second hearing before the Planning Commission …

Late last month, Milender White submitted its Fourth Street Crossing Preliminary Site Plan to the Town of Silverthorne. As part of the planning process, the team hosted a community open house on July 12 that drew about 300 people. “We had an excellent turnout, and want to thank everyone who stopped by the event,” said Tim Fredregill, Development Executive for Milender White. “Once again, we had overwhelming support for the programming we currently have planned on the site.” Milender White’s site plan calls for a mixed-use development that is rooted in the Silverthorne …

We checked in with Milender White, the developer for Fourth Street Crossing in downtown Silverthorne, and got the inside scoop on how plans are progressing for the mixed-use development. From an ice cream shop to a speakeasy, there is a bevy of interested vendors that will bring new vitality to Silverthorne’s downtown.   What dining options will the Market Hall offer? We are planning to have multiple  food & beverage options from a local coffee shop to a white tablecloth restaurant. There will be “main street” shops on 4th Street; …

It’s just weeks away from opening, and it seems like the entire town of Silverthorne is abuzz as it waits for the highly anticipated Angry James Brewery to tap its first keg. The Silverthorne Pulse thought it was the perfect time to connect with owner and brewmaster, AJ Brinkerhoff, to learn more about the vision for the area’s newest watering hole, and to ask the burning question that has been on everyone’s mind: Who is James? And, why is he so angry? The answer, Brinkerhoff laughed, isn’t that mysterious. James …

Last week artist Michael Graves from Denver set up shop outside the Performing Arts Center to paint a mural on the south facing wall of the outdoor stage. Michael’s work was recommended by the Art Selection Committee, approved by the Art Board, and funding was approved by Town Council for his colorful and whimsical project. The Town’s Arts and Culture Strategic Plan calls for art that’s diverse, welcoming, relaxed, creative, playful, colorful, adventurous and energized, which perfectly describes Michael’s work. Public art provides an opportunity for people to come together despite their …

Since its open house in May, the Fourth Street Crossing development team has been working hard to finalize its site plan. “We have received so much interest in this project,” said Tim Fredregill, Milender White development executive. “It has been great, but really, it’s not all that surprising. Everyone we have spoken to about this project agrees that Silverthorne is the biggest opportunity in Summit County.” Milender White is very close to announcing several site partners for Fourth Street Crossing, including the hotel brand, the market hall group, and the …

A new co-op gallery called High Country ARTisans has just opened in the Outlets at Silverthorne to sell a variety of art forms and host artist demonstrations for the public. High Country ARTisans started about six years ago at Keystone Lake. The 18 artists who make up the co-op live throughout the Summit County area and have come from all over including California, Michigan, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, New York and New Jersey. The artists cite that Summit County is an ideal location because the river, lake and mountains inspire …

On Saturday, June 24, the Town of Silverthorne and Lake Dillon Theatre Company (LDTC) celebrated the opening of the Silverthorne Performing Arts Center with a day chock full of ceremonies, artful performances and entertainment attended by hundreds of Silverthorne residents and visitors alike. The day’s festivities culminated with the inaugural performance of “Sister Act,” which like all LDTC shows to date, has sold out each show, and has limited tickets available through its final performance on August 13. In addition, LDTC’s impressive line-up in its first season coined “New Beginnings” …

Earlier this summer, Milender White unveiled design progress for the new Fourth Street Crossing development at a community open house in Silverthorne. Aiming to become the new “main street” of downtown Silverthorne, the proposal calls for a hotel, storefront retail, office space, a parking structure and residential units. Additionally, Milender White is looking to create a market hall, which will include multiple dining options, a cafe, and boutique retail space. The open house offered additional resident insight to help guide the project towards its final programming. To view the full plan in detail, click here. “We received …
