With approval in hand for the expansion of the Aspen Club and Spa from the Aspen City Council, club prexy Michael Fox took the time to thank his supporters. "The proposed project, Aspen Club Living, will add 20 residential units, sold in fractions so that they are occupied throughout the year," he blogs. "The project will also add 12 affordable housing units-150% of the required mitigation- to the upgraded Club facilities. In addition, this will be the first project in the country to combine sustainable green development with a holistic health focus to create a healthy living community. The Aspen Club of the future will be something very special within Aspen specifically because it will be at the forefront of mind, body and spirit- a vision that Aspen continues to embody through you, the members of its community."
