Aspen Skiing Company

Green Building

Aspen Skiing Company built one of the first LEED certified buildings in the world – the Sundeck atop Aspen Mountain, and they have since built 3 more, including the Snowmass Golf Clubhouse, one of the greenest commercial buildings in Colorado and the Aspen Skiing Company's Holiday House which is the only LEED Platinum multi-unit housing project in Colorado.  This has helped Aspen Skiing Company to maintain their position as an industry leader on BICEP's key principle of supporting the development of aggressive energy efficiency technology and policies.
