Project Overview

Mountain Marketplace Is Transforming a Historic Site

The long-vacant former 1996 Olympic Tennis Center at 1915 West Park Place Blvd is being redeveloped into Mountain Marketplace, a premier mixed-use destination led by Fuqua Development and Greystar.

"The Costco Effect is real—major retail anchors often drive stronger buyer demand and long-term appreciation in nearby neighborhoods."
