Project

Introducing Avian, an extraordinary residential community that embodies the essence of elevated apartment living in the vibrant city of Colorado Springs. As the city continues to flourish, Avian stands as a testament to progressive development. This 169-unit community draws inspiration from two pivotal influences that shape Colorado Springs: the awe-inspiring Rocky Mountains and the rich aviation heritage.

The Ute people bestowed the name “Tava,” meaning Sun Mountain, upon the majestic Pikes Peak, as its granite visage casts a captivating reflection. In homage to this heritage, Avian’s amenity space is meticulously designed with expansive glass elements that mirror the panoramic views of Pikes Peak for passersby to marvel at. The building’s entrance, adorned with resplendent CORTEN steel framing, serves as an artistic interpretation capturing the adjacent mountain vistas, while the dynamic sloping roof forms emulate the mountain slopes themselves. Colorado Springs, being home to the prestigious United States Air Force Academy, boasts a significant aviation legacy. Hence, the name “Avian” pays homage to this profound influence on the city.

The project comprises a mix of studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom units, catering to the diverse needs of young professionals in downtown Colorado Springs. Avian further entices residents with over 6,000 square feet of meticulously designed amenity spaces, including a spacious pool deck and an inviting club room, creating an unparalleled living experience.

Construction of Avian is well underway, and we anticipate its completion in 2023.
