Automotive Repair Shop to Uptown Bistro Restaurant: Frisco, Colorado
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 19 August 2005
Extract
The popular Uptown Bistro Restaurant represents the successful adaptive reuse of a tire service shop that left behind waste oils and hydraulic fluid on a quarter–acre lot in the middle of Main Street. The 0.24–acre former automobile service site is located in the mountain town of Frisco, Colorado. Prior to the mid–1990s, this relatively small town (population 2,800) had been a fueling stop, a virtual stepchild to nearby ski resorts. Following a tremendous makeover, Frisco has become a well–regarded “local stop” known for shops, restaurants, and overnight accommodations servicing the entire Summit County resort community. Cleanup and redevelopment of the Uptown Bistro Restaurant locale in 1996 was a pioneering development at the beginning of this transformation.
