The Olympics and Architecture: Shaping the Future of Utah’s Landscapes
The Olympic Games have always been a celebration of athleticism, competition, and international unity. However, they also leave a lasting legacy in the cities that host them, particularly in the realm of architecture and urban planning. Elizabeth Hales Design, a leading firm in commercial architecture and mountain modern homes, will play a major role in creating new properties that meet these rising housing demands. Known for our innovative and luxurious designs, EHD will be instrumental in shaping the future of these areas. Our expertise in crafting mountain modern homes that blend seamlessly with the natural surroundings has made them a top choice for homeowners and developers in Utah.
As Utah's Olympic bid for 2030 gains momentum, several areas in the state are experiencing increased attention and growth, especially in anticipation of potential Olympic events. Aside from Park City, other notable areas that are gaining momentum are Eden, Snowbasin, and Powder Mountain.
Eden, located in Ogden Valley, has become a rising star in the world of winter sports and outdoor activities. The area's proximity to Snowbasin and Powder Mountain ski resorts has made it an attractive destination for visitors and outdoor enthusiasts. With the possibility of hosting Olympic events nearby, Eden is experiencing a surge in infrastructure development, new recreational facilities, and investment in tourism-related businesses. The architectural landscape is evolving to accommodate the influx of visitors and potential athletes, bringing a new level of modernity and convenience to this charming valley.
Snowbasin and Powder Mountain
Nestled in the northern part of Utah are emerging prime destinations for winter sports and outdoor adventures. The potential for hosting Olympic competitions in these areas is driving infrastructure enhancements, including upgraded ski facilities, expanded accommodation options, and improved transportation networks.
This development surge is not only transforming the landscape of these areas but also increasing their global visibility. Powder Mountain Ski Resort was recently voted the number one ski resort in the western United States according to a 2024 Ski Reader Resort Survey. This will undoubtedly result in a flux of development in this area, especially in the construction of ski-in / ski-out properties.
As Utah's Olympic bid progresses, it will be fascinating to see how the intersection of sports, architecture, and nature unfolds in these mountain paradises. The future of Utah's landscapes is undoubtedly an exciting one, with potential Olympic events driving innovation and prosperity in the region. Elizabeth Hales Design is excited to participate in these events and shape the future of Utah’s infrastructure.
