Stanley Hotel to be bought by arts and education organization

DENVER ( KDVR ) — Colorado’s famous Stanley Hotel will experience some big changes after the Colorado Educational and Cultural Facilities Authority approved documents on Wednesday to issue bonds to fund the purchase of the property.

Last year, CECFA formed a subsidiary, SPACE, LLC., and worked with multiple entities to secure funding for the transaction. It worked with the Colorado Office of Economic Development and International Trade, which will use sales tax revenue from the Regional Tourism Act program to help pay the bonds.

The bonds will be managed by SPACE, LLC. who will assume ownership of the property when the bonds are retired, according to a release from CECFA.
