Winning projects in Olympic City USA.
City for Champions is a collection of five distinct and extraordinary venues that will attract new visitors to Colorado Springs, the surrounding region and the State of Colorado.
With four of five already open, these projects will improve the quality of life for residents and the visitor experience for those traveling to the region. Together, the City for Champions projects add dimension, energy and economic vitality to the region.
