As many of you are aware, the real estate development company that I’m a partner in is building several projects. On today’s show, I’m going to give you an update on the Norris Ranch project in Colorado Springs. It’s been about ten months since we closed on the purchase of this iconic property. While our investors get regular updates, we know that many of our listeners are also interested in following the story.
Let’s start with a bit of background and context. The Norris Ranch is a property of 1783 acres on the Eastern edge of Colorado Springs. The property is sandwiched between Pike’s Peak National Cemetery and Schriever Air Force Base. Schriever is US Space command. They are our neighbor.
The idea behind developing this property involves a major expansion of the city. It will contain 4 densities of residential, retail, commercial, office , hotel, police, fire, schools, etc.
We started the annexation petition to the city in August of 2022, expecting the zoning and annexation process to take about a year.
