CHANDLER, Ariz., Sept. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Danrick Builders has announced it has made its final application with Pinal County for approval to begin construction on a 2.4-mile road racing circuit near Casa Grande, Arizona. The track will offer private memberships, manufacturer testing and driver training, and be approved for local and national car and motorcycle racing events.

«We actually submitted plans in March,» said Dan Erickson, Managing Partner. «Then came the pandemic. Our Formula 1 -ready track with huge grandstands and suites and large common areas suddenly became a risk. The future of large spectator events nationally, with 40,000+ fans, is yet to be determined.

«But people still want to drive and ride and race in a secure, safe environment. This new track, in a different location at Attesa, is our solution. We’re still planning to build the original circuit in its planned location but not this year.»

The new track will be built in phases, configurable and designed for running in either direction. It will feature high speed esses, elevation changes and generous runoff areas to ensure the safest track in Arizona. Members will be able to run at night and the track’s noise limit is a generous 120 decibels at the property line. Other than NASCAR’s Phoenix Raceway, this will be the only track in Arizona specifically designed for racing.

Built on 341 acres, Phase 1A will open with a 186K sq. ft. paddock. The first track will be 16 turns and 2.0 miles long with Phase 1B extending the track to 2.4 miles with 19 turns. Both tracks have high speed variants reducing the number of turns to suit the needs of members and guests. The complex will ultimately offer north and south sections and 16 different configurations including a 4.45-mile loop suitable for IndyCar, IMSA, NASCAR and MotoAmerica races.

«We’re still going to host spectator events for anywhere from 5,000 to 10,000 fans, guests and visitors,» added Erickson. «We’re already talking to some of the major racing organizations to make that happen.»

Club members will have priority access to garages and residential options including single family homes and ‘garage majal’ townhomes. Unlike any other club track in Arizona, Attesa is permanently zoned for residential use so it can sell plots of land with a spec design to allow legal, year ‘round living at or near the track complex.

Attesa will offer on-site trailer storage and a designated RV area for members who want to leave their vehicles or other equipment at the track. Permanent garages, not container box stalls, will be available at or near the track’s opening.

«The track will be founded on a large community of car and motorcycle people connected by a need for performance and speed,» said Erickson. «They know that track time is the only way you get better and faster. More laps, more often are the only way to improve your skills.»

«We’ll offer the best value because you shouldn’t have to be rich to satisfy your passion. Our pricing is lower, mainly because we think members should pay for what they are getting instead of what may or may not be built in the future.»

Also unique to Attesa, the track will offer its members the ability to drive into the darkness. It will have regular evening sessions that start while there is still natural light and run well into the night, creating opportunities for summer and ‘after work’ track privileges.

The track will include an area for manufacturer research and development and driver training. It will have an adjacent industrial district with through-the-gate track access. Construction is scheduled to commence 4th quarter.

Attesa is a master-planned community midway between Phoenix and Tucson near the intersection of Interstate 8 and Interstate 10, about 45 minutes from Phoenix Sky Harbor airport. It will be a place where people can work, live and play, featuring a resort hotel and convention center, retail, and entertainment, residential and industrial and a private FBO airstrip.

PORTLAND, Maine, Sept. 3, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Mountain Shore Properties (MSP), a Charleston, South Carolina-based developer, is planning to open a new Hyatt House hotel in Tallahassee’s Railroad Square Art District. The upscale, extended-stay Hyatt House Tallahassee Capitol – University is currently under construction and scheduled to open in February 2021.

The five-story, 80,000 square foot property will have 120 guestrooms, including 77 with full kitchens, a large patio with outdoor bar service, an outdoor pool, a fitness room and an 846-square-foot meeting room. There will be 6,000 square feet of retail space adjacent to the hotel.

Railroad Square Art District is a unique destination for art, culture, and creative small businesses in Florida’s state capital. The eight acres of brightly painted historic warehouses were transformed in the late 70’s by artistic visionary Nan Boynton, who co-founded Railroad Square’s first art gallery, the 621 Gallery. Art studios and eclectic boutiques followed as Railroad Square was gradually transformed into Tallahassee’s Art District. It now welcomes thousands of visitors to its monthly First Friday Festival, under the ownership of Nan’s son and daughter, Adam Boynton Kaye and Lily Boynton Kaye.

«As the state capital and home to both Florida A& M University and Florida State University, Tallahassee is a unique destination,» said Chief Executive Officer Stephen Wendell of MSP. «This project promises to be a great collaboration with the Kayes as we add a rich sense of Tallahassee’s artistic character and personality throughout the new hotel and integrate it with Railroad Square.»

A new exterior mural, a collaboration between Mountain Shore Properties, Railroad Square, and artist Kollet Hardeman, has just been unveiled. Called Greetings From the Capital City Tallahassee Florida, it functions as a gateway from the Capital Cascades Greenway into Railroad Square Art District. Highlighting various unique features of both the city of Tallahassee and the art district specifically, it has already become a selfie destination for Instagrammers. The hotel will also celebrate local artists with plans for an outdoor sculpture by Mark Dickson, as well as artwork in the lobby and common areas by Christl Grow, Robert Saltarelli and Perdita Ross, with photography in the guest rooms by Katie Clark.

«We could not have asked for a better fit in a developer than Mountain Shore Properties,» said Lily Boynton Kaye, the co-owner of Railroad Square Art District. «They have demonstrated their commitment to the local community by incorporating colorful elements and local artwork into both the interior and exterior. Hyatt House Tallahassee Capitol – University will offer the unique experience of exclusively showcasing local artists whose studios are at their doorstep.»

The hotel will serve as the new entry to the Railroad Square Art District. MSP has selected Olympia Hotel Management (OHM) as the operator for Hyatt House Tallahassee Capitol – University.

«We’ve been very pleased to work with OHM on other hotel projects and their deep understanding of campus hospitality and the importance of integrating the community into the fabric of a new hotel through contemporary artwork is a real bonus when it comes to this property. Further, given the strength of the award-winning Hyatt House brand, this hotel is sure to deliver a consistent, quality guest experience for business and leisure travelers alike,» says Wendell.

MSP developed and opened the Hampton Inn & Suites Tallahassee Capitol – University in 2018, which OHM also manages. The success of that property led MSP to consider building an extended stay property that they believe will build on the successful momentum they have achieved with the Hampton Inn. Olympia currently manages three other hotels in the MSP portfolio.

«We share a solid track record for creating award-winning properties» said Chief Growth Officer John Schultzel of OHM, «so we welcome this opportunity to collaborate on another premier select service project with MSP.»
