A Balanced Plan for Park City
A place for Park City to gather, connect, and thrive.
Creating a lasting community destination where public art, local businesses, public spaces, and housing opportunities enrich everyday life in Park City.
01
The Plan
Designed with 60% Open space to welcome and engage the community.
The 5-Acre Site is a transformative partnership between Park City Municipal, GTS, and Brinshore Development to create a vibrant, local-centric, and art-focused mixed-use neighborhood in the heart of Bonanza Park. Designed to serve the people who live and work here, the project will deliver a thoughtful blend of affordable and market-rate housing, neighborhood-serving retail, arts and cultural spaces, and public gathering areas – all connected through a highly walkable, bike-friendly network. Shaped by extensive community input, the 5-Acre Site is designed to support year-round livability and a more resilient local economy.

timeline
From planning to grand opening.
A four-year path with public input built in along the way.
04
Honoring the Artistic Vision
Arts, culture, and creativity have been central to the vision for the site for many years.
While partnerships have changed over time, the project is designed to include an art pavilion, artist studios, artistic playscapes, small amphitheater, and events that celebrate Park City's creative identity, encourage community gathering, and create an active year-round destination.
05
Locally Serving Small Businesses
Designed to strengthen and support the local businesses that make this site unique.
06
Managing the Density
Open space is one of the defining features of the Bonanza 5-Acre Site.
The project utilizes less than half of the site's allowable buildable area while preserving nearly two acres of publicly accessible community gathering area.
07
The five priorities
A balanced plan for the future.
This plan brings five key community priorities together.
1. Arts and culture at the core
- An accessible, everyday hub for arts and culture
- Features: outdoor amphitheater for performances; flexible arts pavilion for workshops and events; maker space and co-working studio for artists; spaces designed for pop-up and seasonal programming
- Possible experiences: live music under the open sky; pop-up dance performances; seasonal art markets; plein air painting events
2. Affordable housing for local workers
- 106 thoughtfully designed units (88 affordable)
- Housing for approximately 144–198 local workers
- Helps retain the workforce that supports the local economy
- Workers living locally reduces commuting traffic into town
3. Public spaces that bring people together
- Gathering areas for families, neighbors, and visitors
- Designed to support connection, relaxation, and everyday community life
4. Neighborhood-serving businesses
- Everyday commercial spaces that support residents
- Walkable convenience without over-commercialization
- Designed to complement existing districts, not compete with them
- Restaurant and cafe
5. Smart infrastructure
- 250–300 underground parking spaces
- Reduces street congestion
- Preserves open space and neighborhood character
- RMP powerline undergrounding

Refinement
A plan refined through input.
The Bonanza Park Small Area Plan was developed through an extensive public engagement process involving more than 1,500 community members through community meetings, stakeholder roundtables, and surveys. The Plan established a vision for Bonanza Park as a neighborhood where Parkites gather to shop, dine, create, and experience local arts and culture. It further envisions a more walkable, connected, livable, and inclusive community that serves current and future community members of all ages. The Bonanza 5-Acre Site Project advances many of the key goals identified in the adopted Small Area Plan, including creating a mixed-use, locally focused, pedestrian-friendly, inclusive, green, and culturally vibrant neighborhood.

built for community impact
More than a place to live. A place to belong.
The design integrates arts into everyday life, creates shared spaces for connection, supports local workers and creatives, and enhances quality of life for all residents. Each element is intentionally connected, with housing, culture, open space, and commerce working together.

Origin
The 2017 Original Project Vision
More than a decade of planning, public input, and community-shaped vision led here.
- Advancing the community's vision
For more than a decade, Park City's planning efforts have identified Bonanza Park as the place to create an art-focused, vibrant, walkable, mixed-use neighborhood that serves local residents. The adopted Bonanza Park Small Area Plan and General Plan envisioned a district that includes arts and culture, improved community amenities, public gathering spaces, transportation connections, housing, and employment opportunities. - A neighborhood that reflects Park City's values
The Bonanza 5-Acre redevelopment advances these long-standing goals and provides an opportunity to create a dynamic, mixed-use neighborhood that reflects Park City's values — integrating public spaces, community amenities, transportation connections, and housing into a single, cohesive destination. - Years of planning, public engagement, and input
The project is the result of years of planning, public engagement, City Council discussions, and community input. While specific opportunities and partnerships have evolved over time, the core vision has remained consistent: creating a place that helps keep Park City a complete, connected, and livable community — for current and future generations.
