VAIL VALLEY, CO
EARLY THREE DECADES AGO, East West Partners’ belief that a destination can only be as genuine as the people who live there helped us define three core values that inspire us to this day: Innovation, Sustainability, and Community. Beginning with Beaver Creek Village, we set out to refine and enhance the concept of the luxury mountain r esort village, where we took inspiration from established seaside resort communities and vibrant urban centers and designed with our natural surroundings in mind. Ever since, we’ve successfully applied the same focused, holistic approach to resort and residential developments throughout the Vail Valley and the Rocky Mountains.

MARKET SQUARE AT BEAVER CREEK
PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS • Outdoor escalators carry guests from the bus drop off to the plaza level. • Market Square has helped inspire the community spaces for many of North America’s most iconic ski resorts. • Thanks in part to the amenities created by East West Partners, Beaver Creek is the country’s original luxury ski resort.
18
A
S ONE OF EAST WEST Partners’ most iconic projects to date, it’s no wonder Beaver Creek’s Market Square kept innovation, sustainability, and community front and center. And as a key piece in establishing Beaver Creek as a premier resort destination, it was designed with something for everyone.

MARKET SQUARE AT BEAVER CREEK
The central, public skating rink and surrounding restaurants and shops are the hub of the village, encouraging residents and guests to linger long after the lifts stop running and the sun sinks behind the slopes. Market Square’s luxury condominiums, the world-renowned Vilar Performing Arts Center, a large public parking area, and a skier drop off leading directly to slopeside escalators all help define Beaver Creek as one of the finest, friendliest resort destinations in the world.
20
INNOVATION KEY TO SUCCESS Ski boots are not made for walking, especially up two flights of steep, icy stairs. Our insightful and innovative design team did something unprecedented to remedy this common burden: They installed covered escalators to whisk gearÂtoting skiers safely from the bustling plaza of Market Square straight up to the slopes. Today Beaver Creek offers conveyors and escalators throughout the village.
7 unique art galleries in the Market Square Promenade, also known as Gallery Row.
200) Market Square at Beaver Creek earned East West Partners a 1998 ULI Award for Excellence.

PARK HYATT BEAVER CREEK RESORT & SPA
PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS • The Park Hyatt Beaver Creek was the first hotel to feature topfloor luxury condominiums as part of a resort development. • This premiere Beaver Creek resort was first to feature an onsite ski valet and slopeside fire pits. • The Park Hyatt Beaver Creek features an award winning 30,000-s quare-foot spa with 23 treatment rooms and state of-the-a rt fitness club.
22
P
ERCHED SLOPESIDE AT the top of Beaver Creek Village, Park Hyatt Beaver Creek Resort & Spa is the very definition of luxury and service. Originally completed in 1989, East West Partners elevated the property in 2007 with an upgrade to the Hyatt and the addition of the 30,000-square-foot, awardwinning Allegria Spa. Even further upgrades saw the conversion of 15 luxury suites into sharedownership, private residences.

PARK HYATT BEAVER CREEK RESORT & SPA
A commitment to balancing exclusive resort experiences with intimate shared spaces is portrayed in amenities like the slopeside stone firepit, where guests gather every evening to roast s’mores and share the day’s stories. Foodies adore 8100 Mountainside Bar and Grill with its live-action grill and modern mountain atmosphere, while the grand Antler Hall provides a warm, cozy gathering place for hotel guests and locals alike.
24
INNOVATION KEY TO SUCCESS The Park Hyatt Beaver Creek’s convenient ski valet concept set the industry standard and takes the art of service to new levels. Featuring onsite equipment rental and bootfitting services from world-renowned Gorsuch Outfitters—plus a stateof-the-art shop that tunes your gear nightly—it only gets better with friendly valets ready each morning to help you into your toasty boots fresh from the overnight boot drier.
$145M was the record-setting sale price for the Park Hyatt Beaver Creek Resort & Spa, sold in April, 2017.
#1 First in the nation to feature branded top-floor condiminiums, onsite ski valets, and slopeside fire pits.

THE WESTIN RIVERFRONT RESORT & SPA
PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS • East West Partners donated a five-acre parcel along the Eagle River to the Town of Avon as permanent public open space. • The Riverfront Express Gondola established a convenient, direct connection between the Town of Avon and the resort, reducing local traffic and carbon footprints. • Spa Anjali was Colorado’s first dedicated green spa, using only environmentally-friendly products and organic spa linens.
26
T
HEY SAY A RISING TIDE— or, in this case gondola— lifts all ships. When we conceptualized the Westin Riverfront Resort & Spa, we were confident it would raise the land- and usevalue for Avon and the entire Vail Valley. And we were right. Working with Avon leaders to create a new transportation hub adjacent to the Resort, the Riverfront Express Gondola adds value by relieving on-mountain traffic congestion while improving quality of life for Westin guests and the whole community.

THE WESTIN RIVERFRONT RESORT & SPA
As the centerpiece of the village area, the Westin Riverfront Resort & Spa champions community with spaces that bring people together. The Westin Fitness club accommodates hotel guests, vacation club guests, and owners year-round with amenities like a saline pool and fitness facilities including Mikaela’s Corner, named for Olympian Mikaela Shiffrin, who works out there. And like all East West Partners projects, the resort boasts uncompromising amenities such as Spa Anjali, Richard Sandoval’s Maya Restaurant, Westin Kids Club, retail shops, and the world-renowned Howard Head Sports Medicine facility.
28
SUSTAINABILITY KEY TO SUCCESS The first hotel in Colorado and only the ninth in the country to earn a Silver LEED Certification from the U.S. Green Building Council, the Westin Riverfront Resort & Spa represents East West Partners’ dedication to preserving our pristine mountain environment. Fifty percent of the resort’s electricity is produced by renewable sources, including wind power, and automated climate control systems ensure unoccupied rooms aren’t heated or cooled unnecessarily.
23K square feet of bliss and 14 treatment rooms at Spa Anjali, with signature spa treatments inspired by healing traditions of the mountains.
40% of the building materials and products were sourced within 500 miles of the project, significantly limiting the project’s carbon footprint.

EMPIRE MOUNTAIN VILLAGE
We selected Empire Pass ridge on Flagstaff Mountain for two reasons: views and access. Our team envisioned a Village with a broad collection of residential offerings, single-family homes, townhomes, and condominiums all situated strategically along the Silver Buck ski run and Silver Strike chair lift. Each home is steps from the slopes and boasts views of Empire Mountain or the Snyderville Basin.
34
COMMUNITY KEY TO SUCCESS A lodge keeper who knows everyone and helps make connections. Common spaces that are well appointed, comfortable and encourage interaction. Flagstaff and One Empire Pass have brought these elements together to enhance the community, including continental breakfasts, aprĂŠs-ski events, family rooms with games for all ages, and beautiful outdoor spaces. These all help ensure owners feel a direct, meaningful connection to the community.
143 units were solid by East West Partners in Empire Pass from 2004–2009, making it the most successful project to date in the area.
22 due diligence reports were conducted and commissioned by East West Partners, ranging from environmental and wildlife studies to design and transportation plans.

KAUAI, HI
AWAII IS RICH WITH A RARE and diverse culture, centered around the historic use of its ocean and land. Yet each island puts its own distinctive spin on the Aloha Spirit that pervades life across this archipelago. Home to sunny Poipu Beach, the Na Pali Coast, Mt. Waialeale, Hanalei Bay and Waimea Canyon, Kauai is as close as you’ll get to Neverland. From mauka (the mountains) to makai (the ocean), reverence for the island’s proximate landscape is what attracted East West Partners to Kukui’ula and made it the ideal location to enter the Hawaii market.

KUKUI’ULA CLUB VILLAS
PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS • The on-site organic farm provides residents and the club’s restaurants with locally grown food. • From the site selection to the floor plans to the craftsmanship of the finishes, Hawaiian living informed every design decision. • Wellness on-site includes fine dining, pools, spa, yoga, pilates and fitness classes, health practitioners, community programming, and golf course. And that’s just the beginning.
40

N PARTNERSHIP WITH A&B Properties, East West Partners founded Kukui’ula Club Villas in the fall of 2013. Boasting spa and wellness areas, pools, plus an organic farm and lake, the 13 single-family villas are within walking distance of Kukui’ula’s five-star clubhouse and the Tom Weiskopf golf course overlooking Kukui’ula Bay. These four-bedroom residences were designed with seamless indoor/outdoor living top-of-mind, boasting pocket walls that open the main living spaces to expansive lanais with meticulous landscaping and gorgeous rock walls for added privacy and serenity.

KUKUI’ULA CLUB VILLAS
The first large-scale, masterplanned, private community on the island in more than 40 years, Kukui’ula’s neighborhoods pay homage to the surrounding landscape. For the Hawaii buyer, a home at Kukui’ula is an opportunity to gather family members and friends for wellness, adventure and restoration, all important aspects for an active lifestyle. But it is the community farm, overlooking both the ocean and lake, that best encapsulates Kukui’ula’s aloha `aina (love of the land), tying the residents to the rich, life-giving earth and natural beauty that is The Garden Isle.
42
SUSTAINABILITY KEY TO SUCCESS Kukui’ula residents are invited to select the day’s fare, from fruits and vegetables to eggs, all sourced from the 100% organic Upcountry Farm & Lake any time they wish. And as the on-property outfitting and guide service exclusive to Kukui’ula members and their guests, Island Pursuits equips adventurers for hiking, biking, swimming, surfing, kayaking, sailing, and camping.
1,000 acres of Kauai’s sunny South Shore set the stage for a luxurypositioned, master-planned community with significant amenities.

ORE THAN 15 YEARS AGO, East West Partners set out to build Riverfront Park and to revive the historic Union Station area with a vibrant, new, mixed-use neighborhood in what had become an urban wasteland. Principles borrowed from our mountain communities became the pillars of the projects: a pedestrianfriendly lifestyle, collaboration with the city, and communal cohesion. Spanning the Denver metro area, East West Partners has built 1,300 residences, 75,000 square feet of community retail space, and 750,000 square feet of Class-A office space. Most importantly, we’ve given rise to a community where none existed before.

PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS • Created a Master HOA to help provide services and funds to maintain the project. • Helped establish the Riverfront Park Community Foundation to foster diversity and opportunity in education and the arts. • Established the Platte Forum, a non-profit organization that supports artists and at-risk underserved youth in Denver. Through innovative long-term programs, the Platte Forum allows youth to work side-by-side with artists in residence.

IVERFRONT PARK WAS East West Partners’ flagship project in Denver. Overlooking Commons Park and the South Platte River, it is an urban master-planned neighborhood with lofts, condominiums and apartments; as well as shops, restaurants and services. Built under a form-based zoning code, the development encompasses 1,859 privately developed, forsale, for-rent, and affordable homes, with buildings first opening in 2001 and with construction ongoing through 2014.

RIVERFRONT PARK
From its inception, Riverfront Park became a revered neighborhood at the urban core of Denver, and The Glass House remains one of the most coveted addresses in the city, not only for its location but for its outstanding amenities and incredible views in all directions. Today, residents of Riverfront Park can play, wander, skate, swim, and walk their dogs along non-vehicular pathways or in any of four adjacent parks built by the state, the city, the developer, donors, and residents alike.
50
SUSTAINABILITY KEY TO SUCCESS The neighborhood, built on a brownfield and former rail yard, was an early model of sustainability. It fits within the city’s grid and is connected to surrounding areas by four pedestrian bridges that cross railroad tracks, an interstate highway, and a river, to encourage a car-free, pedestrian lifestyle that reduces each resident’s carbon footprint.
200) The Riverfront Park development earned East West Partners a 2011 ULI Award for Excellence.

OGETHER WITH CONTINUUM Partners, East West Partners realized the opportunity of a lifetime after becoming the master developer of the Union Station Neighborhood. The project has been pivotal in revitalizing Downtown Denver, and the impetus of an urban migration that’s drawing young singles, families, and retirees back to the city’s core. In partnership with the Regional Transportation District and the City of Denver, we led the design, financing, and development of the $480 million project, uniting eight different modes of mass transit under one roof.

UNION STATION NEIGHBORHOOD
Our vision for the surrounding neighborhood has been to transform 14 city blocks between Wynkoop and Riverfront Park—previously an expanse of abandoned rail yards— into a progressive urban center. To date East West Partners has completed two office projects, One Union Station and The Triangle Building; is constructing a third, 16 Chestnut; and is underway on The Coloradan, a condominium project at the heart of the neighborhood. Once complete, the Union Station Neighborhood will provide a host of spaces including apartments, restaurants, stores, offices, condominiums, hotels, and entertainment.
54
COMMUNITY KEY TO SUCCESS Perhaps no other project in Denver’s history has been more collaborative, beginning with a 98-member advisory committee. East West Partners worked with private investors, public agencies, and the citizens of Denver to create a project that today everyone can claim responsibility for, and be proud to call their own.
10 acres of public space including Wynkoop Plaza, 17th Street Linear Garden, Light Rail Plaza, and more.

58
F
ROM THE VERY BEGINNING, One Vendue set the standard for 21st-century mixeduse construction, marketing, and real estate sales in Charleston. The property is comprised of four buildings with luxury residences and two private garden plazas. Successfully integrating private residential condominiums and a public art gallery on 1.5 acres in a dense, historically sensitive district was no easy task. The design of the One Vendue complex—which
59

CHARLESTON, SC
ONE VENDUE & CITY GALLERY
includes a public gallery featuring local and regional art—respects the architectural integrity of the city and, in turn, enhances the character and culture of Charleston’s historic Waterfront Park and the surrounding neighborhood. From art to history, private gardens to a full time concierge, and fantastic dining opportunities in all directions, One Vendue living is truly the enjoyable way to spend your days in Charleston.
60
INNOVATION KEY TO SUCCESS By extending the fabric of the historic neighborhood to blend into Waterfront Park, preserving existing view corridors and respecting surrounding historic structures, One Vendue fit comfortably among its surroundings. We also designed appropriately within existing maximum height requirements, while observing considerations for building in a flood zone.

the lot within the Tides community, which in turn allowed us to build upon the potential of this ideal location. Blending the comforts of home with the luxuries of a tranquil vacation has always been the focus of the Tides IV vision. From a pet washing station to an Owner’s Retreat, residents can kick back, relax and feel like they’re on holiday. Meanwhile, homeowners lead an active lifestyle by frequenting the state-of-the-art fitness center, biking on nearby trails, or getting out on the water for some fun in the sun.
64
COMMUNITY KEY TO SUCCESS The confluence of a central location, a healthy lifestyle, and placement among Charleston’s most beautiful natural settings makes Tides IV a local’s paradise. In serving the needs of long-time locals, Tides IV residences invite folks to downsize and let their home become their sanctuary, not their unending project.

East West Partners understands that every market is different, and we offer the flexibility to provide the highest level of support in all aspects of development.
DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT East West Partners has developed millions of square feet in office space and over 4,000 residential units as condominiums, townhomes, apartments, and cluster homes. These developments are both mixed-use and stand-alone projects. We are unrivaled in our ability to structure financing to protect and increase property values. We have received financing from 12 banks and have worked with equity providers of every stripe: family funds, publicly traded REITs, private investment funds, and public municipalities.

ACQUISITION, PLANNING & ENTITLEMENTS
REPORTING
One of the best opportunities for value creation is during the initial stages of a project. Creating a vision for the land, working with the community and town to create a project that works for all parties and getting the land entitled are huge value creators. When not done correctly it can lead to long delays and significant legal challenges. East West Partners has effectively navigated this process and has an excellent reputation in our communities and with their public officials.
Our streamlined but thorough reporting process provides total transparency. It furnishes decision makers with market and demographic data, establishes and updates a robust financial proforma to quickly identify cost overruns and revenue enhancements, creates and tracks a bank budget through the draw process, and meets all regulatory requirements.
PROJECT VISION & DESIGN Project design should be timeless. While great floorplans are a key attribute of all East West Partners projects, we do not design by checking boxes for attributes. We start by understanding the market and visioning what is desired. We utilize our extensive network of architects and interior designers to determine the right professionals to bring this to fruition. And then we sweat the small details to ensure the design is timeless. While the latest in kitchen cabinets and granite countertops will go in and out of favor, a well designed unit will be lived in and loved for a long time.

CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT In total, East West Partners has managed $5 billion in construction projects including infrastructure, condominiums, fractionals and timeshares, townhomes, office buildings, restaurants, and amenities such as golf courses and clubhouses. Our experience gives us a unique insight into controlling costs, managing general and subcontractors, and meeting schedules.
SALES & MARKETING FINANCING Over the past two decades, East West Partners has arranged $4 billion in financing through public and private partnerships. We have worked with a variety of equity providers and construction lenders, including Wells Fargo Bank, Vectra Bank, and First Bank to name a few.
Since 1986, East West Partners’ real estate transactions total more than $5 billion. Our emphasis on putting ourselves in the buyers shoes has resulted in marketing that not only appeals to the emotional aspects of buying but also answers all the questions a buyer could ask, before they do. Our reputation of delivering what we say we will and working with brokers has made our development projects the first ones looked at by brokers and their clients. We have successfully marketed and sold everything from master planned lots to luxury condominiums.
