Let me be abundantly clear. Point one: the top of Mill is my home. What happens at the top of Mill, Monarch and Aspen directly effects me. Point two: I create visual presentations for a living. I know when pictures lie.
This may be the point at which we need a P&Z with serious 3D skills to strip a developer’s dream down to what matters for the town.
Gorsuch Haus…. Lordy Lordy, Lordy…
There are epic visual presentations from both sides of the argument
http://www.gorsuchhaus.com/about-gorsuch-haus/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jnQuXX4Ov0
and both fluff the truth.
Here is what I want to see in a visual presentation- for starters - no unrealistic Point of View- standard eye level of 5.5’ please -do not use negative space to make things look smaller- do not use forced perspective to make things look larger - no wider angle than human vision- no color cuing- existing and proposed buildings the same value and hue please. Don’t use camera tricks like “dumping” a big red blob down on the top of Aspen street and don’t use soft fuzzy pastels to make the building look all cozy and friendly.
1. What do *all* the proposed buildings look like- this includes what the Browns are pitching- from the following vantage points:
2. What do the proposed buildings look like from the North end of Wagner Park?
3. What do the proposed buildings look like from the lower Catwalk (aka summer road)?
4 What does the FIS finish look like- from town, from the stands and - for extra credit- as it will be televised?
5. What does a line of 100 skiers at the proposed lift 1A look like? A simulation of skiing Norway to the new lift could be done for extra credit.
6. Create simulations of a skier accessing 1A from Mill, Monarch and Aspen - starting from Wagner Park.
Pictures lie. We need the truth. I bet a 3D simulation of all of the above will cost less than a referendum.
