Traer Creek is a family business working exclusively in land investment, and Michael and Marcus Lindholm are the current company operators. Traer Creek is committed to evaluating quality opportunities and smart growth in Avon. Traer Creek decided annexation into Avon was the correct approach, as opposed to being in unincorporated Eagle County. Traer Creek is committed to aligning with the Town of Avon to further assist with Avon’s growth, meeting community goals, and solidifying the Town’s tax base.
From the onset, Traer Creek has strived to do something different. The Village design philosophy means to distinguish oneself by being unique, sustainable, interesting, attractive and respectful of the mountain setting and the surrounding projects within the community. Previously, Traer Creek worked exclusively with world-renowned architect Arthur Erickson and Nick Milkovich Architects.
The late Mr. Erickson was known for innovative planning and design throughout the world. He was the recipient (awarded fellowship) of the AIA’s (The American Institute of Architects) highest honor, the Gold Medal Award; notable projects include: Al-Buhairat City, Saudi Arabia; the Vancouver Civic Centre; Bunker Hill Redevelopment area of Los Angeles; and the Embassy of Canada in Washington, D.C.
Thus far, Walmart, Home Depot, Traer Creek Plaza, ECHSD Ambulance Response Station, Piedmont, the Marriott dual brand hotel and Maverik gas station and convenience store have been developed in the Village.
Traer Creek Plaza is Traer Creek’s signature building. It opened in 2006 and, when completed, was the first LEED certified mixed-use retail and office building in Eagle County and one of the first on the Western Slope of Colorado.
By constructing Traer Creek Plaza and achieving LEEDs certification, Traer Creek was seeking to raise the bar for Vail Valley projects. The motivation behind creating a sustainable building is the philosophy that in an ever-changing world, Traer Creek needs to add to this great community in a responsible manner. This architectural award-winning building sets the standard today for what Traer Creek wants to achieve.
