ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST: The End O' Day Motel in Durango is nearing the end of its days, to be replaced by a mixed use development of commercial and residential condominiums.
"The End O' Day Motel is something that has definitely outlived its useful life," said owner Tracy Reynolds. Reynolds' plan to raze the building located at 360 E. Eighth Avenue, north of the Sonic Drive-In, was approved by a unanimous vote of the Durango Planning Commission on Monday. The City Council is expected to hold a hearing on the project in mid-May.
Reynolds wants to replace the motel, which has become an eyesore with fading paint, a lifeless electric sign and a potentially dangerous electrical system that requires an on-call electrician, with a three story condominium development and four commercial units.
Reynolds said he intends to build the development according to Built Green Colorado principles including the use of recycled materials. "We feel like it's a responsible thing to do, and also a good way to market the project."
