The Roaring Fork Valley near the picturesque towns you've vacationed in and dreamed about visiting all your life are becoming a huge site for new condo developments. I grew up in Basalt Colorado and Aspen and spent a good portion of my growth watching these somewhat small towns transform into hubs of vacation and retreat. The town of Aspen for example has been considered as a regal vacation getaway for the better part of 40 years but not since late 2002 did the real big and expensive condo development begin. Many older developments were razed and demolished with the demand of new and luxurious living.
Basalt on the other hand has developed much more slowly but is seeing a very nice and well planned out stage in their growth; much of its positive development can be attributed to former mayor of Basalt, Rick Stevens. Mayor Stevens helped put together the "Riverwalk" development that shadows the Roaring Fork River, and played a key role in the gentrification and maintenance in the new and updated layout of the igneous terrain. While Basalt is seeing an increase in its condo developments, it still maintains its old-style charm by keeping Main st. a rustic yet desirable avenue to call home.
NewCondosOnline is helping put Colorado and the Aspen Valley on the map by featuring the Aspen Shadow Rock development. I've seen this development and many more spring up making the valley a great place to visit and an even better place to live; not to mention the fact that it lies in a mountain range oppsite the eastern slope to Denver and Fort Collins, giving you all access to travel to Denver or the Western U.S.
