Snake River Landing Chosen for Proposed Idaho Falls Events Center

2010-01-25T14:31:00.002-07:00

KIDK - Anthony Congi
Published: January 22, 2010

IDAHO FALLS - After listening to public input eight possible proposals for the site, the Idaho Falls Visitors and Convention Bureau has been busy thoroughly studying locations over the past nine months.

The committee shortened the list to three possible sites, and submitted the properties to a consulting firm to make a final decision. Their final recommendation; Snake River Landing.

"Any one of the three would have been viable candidates for this project. However, that is farther along in its development. There are plans for complimentary businesses that would work with the events center there and that edged out the other two," explains Convention and Visitors Bureau Executive Director Bob Everhart.

The other two site locations would have forced construction to start basically from nothing. Snake River Landing already has immediate name recognition, plans in place to build roads and infrastructure, parking availability and a close proximity to hotels, restaurants and the interstate. The site selection committee also took in factors such as access to utilities and possibilities of sustainable energy resources.

Snake River Landing plans to hold the facility on the southwest corner of their property. They're also very excited about all the possibilities the event center brings for them.

"We have been excited that they're working on this process for a long time and have always supported the idea of having an events center and thought it would be a great thing for this community. We were just extremely excited when we found out that we'd been selected for the site," says Snake River Landing Chief Development Officer Eric Isom.

The next step will include preliminary drawings of what it'll look like and what will be included in it.

"We think it's a great thing for the region and it'll really help put Idaho Falls on the map," says Isom.

The facility is planned to be approximately 140 thousand square feet. Including parking, it will cover about 25 acres. Obviously, we're a long way from seeing it open, but they hope to break ground in the next 12 to 18 months.

Snake River Landing is pleased to announce that RFinity has opened their office in 901 Pier View Drive, Suite 207 near the corporate headquarters of Ball Ventures. RFinity is a new technology company that is launching a product that combines near-field transactions with the flexibility of mobile phones, to offer an open encryption platform that is convenient and highly secure. This system can be used in the context of different industries, from paying your neighbors for items at a garage sale to purchasing event tickets or paying for hotel rooms and opening the door at the same time.

RFinity, who has an exclusive worldwide license to exploit the relevant patents filed in conjunction with the Idaho National Lab (INL), was recently selected as the recipient of the 2009 R&D 100 Award for its Mobile Open-Encryption Platform by an independent judging panel and editors of R&D Magazine.

Although a start-up, RFinity has big plans to grow and has chosen Snake River Landing as not only the place for their current space, but also future expansion. “We love Snake River Landing! One of the reasons why we decided to build here and build out our space with Ball Ventures is because Snake River Landing gives us the flexibility to grow,” said Aaron Turner Chief Executive Officer of RFinity.

2009-05-20T10:56:00.005-06:00

I am Jason Blundell, the Sr. Project Accountant for Snake River Landing. I work with all the departments that interface with the Snake River Landing Development. My role includes working with Construction, Sales, Leasing and the Management Group to make sure the projects we undertake in this development create value for the people who chose to either "live, work, shop or play" here and to make sure we are profitable at the same time. I oversee all of the Accounting to make sure that all transactions are booked correctly and create monthly financial reports to review with the Ball Ventures Management Group. We have a very talented group of people working on this project and I find great satisfaction in working with and learning from my peers as we continue to move forward on this exciting development here in Idaho Falls.

Snake River Landing Team Series: Part 5 - Christian Taylor

2009-05-14T13:33:00.006-06:00

Hello,

I am Christian Taylor. I am the Real Estate Manager for Ball Ventures and Snake River Landing. I have a unique opportunity to be involved in many exciting and new projects in our community. Snake River Landing is one of these projects! I have worked on a few projects within the development but I’m very excited about Pier View Court.

Pier View Court consists of four, 5,600 square foot buildings located in the heart of Snake River Landing, across from Hard Hat Steakhouse & Grill. The buildings have a timeless, yet unique main-street appeal and surround a beautiful central courtyard. If you are looking for a place to put your business, this is the new hot spot for retail or office. Plus, there are many new attractions coming to Snake River Landing including The Central Valley, new businesses, residential and TONS of events, which your business can take advantage of.

Another aspect of my job is helping where I can with the leasing and sales of the property at SRL. Snake River Landing offers so much to individual businesses and people - it’s fun to be able to explore the tremendous opportunities we have with anyone who is looking for a place to live, work, shop and play. When you come down here to see all of the things that SRL has to offer, stop in and say hi to our team.

As Property Manager it is my responsibility to make sure Snake River Landing stays clean, looking good and all systems are properly maintained for the public’s enjoyment.

As Tenant Coordinator I assist Liza Leonard, SRL’s Leasing Representative, in the beginning stages of a tenant’s build out. Together, Liza and I help answer any questions the tenant and the contractor may have concerning the building or the tenant build out. After construction begins, it is my job to oversee construction and make sure everything runs smoothly.

Hard Hat Ribbon Cutting

2009-04-21T10:35:00.004-06:00

SRL Team, Part 2: Liza Leonard

2009-04-15T09:45:00.005-06:00

Hello, Liza Leonard here, on-site Sales and Leasing Representative for Snake River Landing.

I work with interested tenants and buyers through the process of bringing their business to Snake River Landing, from initial discussions through the delivery of a suite or building. Choosing the right location is one of the most important decisions you will make as a business owner. Here at Snake River Landing, we are able to provide our tenants with a convenient location easily accessible from major interchanges and downtown, while also offering a space that is unlike anything else in Idaho Falls – river views, nearly six miles of walking trails to be enjoyed on a lunch break or after work, attractive landscaping and green space, inventive architecture, and many hidden benefits such as a spring, summer and fall packed with community events, skilled advertising and marketing, the flexibility to respond to tenant and buyer needs not typically available from all property owners, and a vision of the future of Idaho Falls and our region.

There are many exciting developments at Snake River Landing this spring. Office space near the Pier is disappearing fast so give me a call today to find out what we can do for you. We have a variety of retail spaces available in premier locations on the river right off Pancheri Drive as well as up the street near the new Hard Hat Steakhouse & Grill. With the weather warming up and the first phase of residential about to kick off, now is the time to get your business in to what will soon become an Idaho Falls hot spot.

Come check out what Snake River Landing has to offer you by visiting the Discovery Center at 901 Pier View Drive, Suite 104, or by giving me a call at 557-5300. We can’t wait to see you here!

Salvation Army Christmas Center to be at SRL

2008-11-13T09:15:00.003-07:00

Snake River Landing and The Salvation Army are pleased to announce that
The Salvation Army Christmas Center will once again be located at Snake River Landing.

Volunteers and The Salvation Army staff will use the space to prepare Christmas baskets for those community members facing difficult times in the upcoming holiday season.
The Salvation Army located their Christmas Center in 2007 at Snake River Landing after their
former space put their staff, volunteers and clients in danger. “Last year, we had a natural gas leak occur in our Christmas Center space on our distribution day. This put hundreds of staff, volunteers and clients at risk. We contacted Snake River Landing and they generously offered to provide us immediately with a safe environment. We were so grateful to be given this premium space filled with ”luxuries” that hadn’t been available in the past - heat, lights, rest rooms and more,” said Lisa Wilkins, a representative from The Salvation Army.

“In the last year we have seen a dramatic increase in the number of clients needing assistance and in the number of new clients asking for help. We expect this trend to continue into the Christmas season. We are preparing to distribute Christmas Baskets to approximately 500 families this year. Without the good works of Snake River Landing, we would not be able to complete such a task. By allowing us to use their beautiful building for our Christmas Programs, they are making a tremendous difference in the lives of families in our community,” continued Wilkins.

The continued donation of space to The Salvation Army was an easy decision for Snake
River Landing. “We believe that the good works of The Salvation Army significantly impact many families in our community and are humbled to be in a position to assist them this holiday season. The local staff and volunteers have a passion for serving the community and we are excited to be a part of the great things that they are accomplishing,” said Eric Isom, Chief Development Officer of Snake River Landing.

AREVA Inc. Selects Eastern Idaho for its Uranium Enrichment Facility

2008-05-19T10:05:00.001-06:00

From AREVA Inc’s Press Release on May 6, 2008

AREVA Inc. announced today that it has selected the state of Idaho for its new U.S. uranium enrichment facility. The site is located in Bonneville County, 18 miles west of Idaho Falls, close to the Idaho National Laboratory site.

The selection was made after extensive technical, environmental and socio-economical analysis of several potential sites throughout the United States. “The United States needs more clean energy to support its economic growth. To enable us to meet those needs we have to expand our domestic nuclear infrastructure, secure our supply of enrichment services and reduce our reliance on foreign imports. This new enrichment plant is a critical part of this process,” said Michael Murphy, President of AREVA Inc.

The new state-of-the-art facility represents a multi-billion dollar investment that would create hundreds of high-skilled jobs during the construction and operation phases.
