Nashville, TN-based Gaylord Entertainment Co. (NYSE: GET) always does things in a big way.  The company's newest planned project is a multi-million-dollar hotel and conference center in High Point, Co. where its financial partner, LNR Property LLC of Miami Beach, FL already has filed plans for a master planned development in Aurora, CO.

In a prepared statement, LNR says the proposed 85-acre resort by Gaylord Entertainment is expected to be open for business in mid-to-late 2015 and initially feature:

  • 1,500 luxurious guest rooms
  • 400,000 square feet of exhibition and meeting space
  • A dramatic atrium setting offering panoramic views of the full Rocky Mountains vista, from Longs Peak down to Pikes Peak
  • Numerous hotel amenities

High Point is an 1,800 acre mixed-use, master-planned community conveniently located 15 miles from downtown Denver and minutes away from the Denver International Airport. The developer of record is LNR Commercial Property Investment Fund LP

"As part of our High Point master planned community, we welcome the opportunity to assist Gaylord in the realization of their planned hotel and conference center, which will be an extraordinary amenity to the greater Denver area as well as to the multi-county area adjacent to the Denver International Airport," said Justin Kennedy, Co-CEO of LNR Property.

"We believe Gaylord is a great strategic fit for the High Point community, their project supports the long-term vision of High Point and we look forward to working with them during the development of this regionally significant property."

In addition to current and future development of up to 10 million square feet of business park development, 500,000 square feet of retail development, 1,600 single family homes and 1,400 multi-family units, High Point is also the home to High Point Academy, a public K-8 charter school started in 2006 to serve residents of High Point with an award winning educational option within the community.
