Qrigmcilyvt'he hotel contained con-tained underground parking and a restaurant. Those plans were dropped when the developers, like those next door, encountered an underground river underneath under-neath the project. The river has precluded subterranean levels for most buildings on the east side of Main St. Despite the fact the building has no parking other than that offered on Main St. and in Swede Alley, Horrigan said she has seen quite an interest in the condominiums. "We're selling the project as destination condominiums where you don't need a car. We'll provide shuttle service to all locations around town, the city bus stops right in front of the hotel and Main St. is easily accessible on foot," Horrigan said. igan, leasing and sales agent for the project said they hope to have a model ready in February. "It's going to be one of the most elegant projects in Park City," Horrigan said. There are six one bedroom units and six two bedroom units that range in price from $155,000 to $205,000. The units go from 680 to 1,160 sq. ft. The building is now in its second year of construction, according to Horrigan who said the developer moved slowly on the project because he built it with out of pocket money and was not pressured pressur-ed by bankers to finish the job.
