Building in Aspen
Aspen is the Pitkin County seat, at about 7,900 feet at the upper end of the Roaring Fork Valley on Highway 82. It began as a silver mining town in the 1880s, and its core still holds Victorian-era homes and commercial buildings alongside lodges, condominiums, and newer homes.
Projects here tend to be detailed and closely reviewed. Older buildings need structural and systems work behind the finishes, lots are tight, and the building season for exterior work is short. Planning, drawings, and procurement carry more weight than they do on the plains.
Permits and jurisdiction
Permits inside city limits go through the City of Aspen, and properties in historic districts or with landmark status get historic preservation review. Surrounding properties fall under Pitkin County. Both have energy requirements that go beyond the base building code, so we account for them during design.
