Suncadia is a planned unincorporated community and resort in Kittitas County, Washington, covering an area of 6,300 acres (25.5 km²). It is located approximately 80 miles (130 km) east of Seattle in the Cascade Mountains between Roslyn, Cle Elum, and the Mountains to Sound Greenway section of Interstate 90. The resort is a joint undertaking between Jeld-Wen and managing partner Lowe Enterprises.〔(Suncadia Resort, Roslyn, Washington | Peterson Economics )〕 The $1 billion project features a 5-star rated mountain lodge with convention center facilities, a mountain springs themed spa, a sports center with indoor and outdoor swimming pools, an outdoor venue amphitheater/lake with winter ice skating, trails and recreational areas, 2,000 residential units, and three golf courses. A village center with restaurants and shops will be completed by 2016. Over 500 single-family homesites were sold in 2004, generating more than $125 million in gross revenue.〔 The community's open space includes a corridor along the Cle Elum River, which remains open to the public under a partnership (called the Suncadia Conservancy) that also includes Washington's Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Yakama Nation.〔(The Seattle Times: Travel Outdoors: New Suncadia resort rolls into Roslyn with luxury inn, golf course )〕 The interests of local citizens in aspects of the development that included the corridor were represented by RIDGE, a grassroots group.〔(RIDGE )〕 Suncadia, originally called "MountainStar," is being built on former forest lands purchased in 1996〔(MountainStar Resort, With Three Golf Courses, 150-room Lodge & Conference Center, Will Forever Change Two Rural Washington Communities / August 2003 )〕 from Plum Creek Timber Company by Jeld-Wen's Trendwest Investments.〔(Mountainstar Resort - Settlement Agreement )〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Suncadia, Washington」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
