Celebrate the 4th of July in Park City Utah

Posted by Sean Matyja on June 28th, 2017

If you have ever spent a July 4th holiday here in Park City, you know the locals take this day of celebration quite seriously. The best bet is to make your way up to Main Street by about 10am, after the pancake breakfast in City Park. Find a spot on Main Street, or meander through the crowd and enjoy the parade and running into many people you know, or meet new friends. As the parade ends, the crowd funnels down to City Park and there you're likely to remain for hours, probably much longer then you'll have intended. There is nothing quite like Independence Day in Park City!

While up on Main Street, be sure to stop by our Sotheby's 625 Main Street office. Doors open at 10AM. We'll have a light breakfast, coffee and refreshing beverages.

Park City has Saved Bonanza Flats

Posted by Sean Matyja on June 27th, 2017

 

A major milestone has been announced for Bonanza Flats. So many in our community have come together to help save 1,350 acres of backcountry access, wildlife, forests & trails along Guardsman Pass.

Park City plans to move forward with purchasing Bonanza Flats. The acquisition, unanimously approved by the Park City Council, would be financed in part by a $25 million bond Park City voters approved in November. Some of the balance would come from donations raised by Utah Open Lands and other conservation groups that have joined forces to help conserve Bonanza Flats.

After so much work, and uncertainty, no longer will this landscape be in plans for a destination ski and golf development. Bonanza Flats is a large area of land that sits behind Park…
