Business Briefs: Brodie Plans, Bank Settlement

Staff Reports

Alpine Village Proposed for Brodie Mountain 

NEW ASHFORD, Mass. — A group of investors who purchased Brodie Mountain three years ago is proposing a $200 million investment to revive the defunct ski area into a "premiere" New England destination.
 
As first reported in The Berkshire Eagle, one of the four partners, Todd Oifer, told the Planning Board on March 24 of Brodie Mountain Development's plans for the 500 acres.
 
Engineer Jeff Fitzgerald and landscape architect Wayne Violette, both from Bohler Engineering, presented renderings for a proposed Alpine village and wellness center. 
 
Fitzgerald, who had skied at Brodie, said the plans are purely conceptual at this point. They would include skiing, hospitality, wellness, vacation rentals and second homes, hotels, events, mountain biking, and a Nordic-style thermal spa.
 
"It will be a classic mountain resort appropriate for the Berkshires," he said. "And have a blend of all these activities ... for a year-round experience for visitors and locals."
 
The purpose of the presentation, he said, was to "take the temperature of the community" on the proposal. 
 
The 60-year-old ski resort closed in 2002 and the snowtubing portion in 2007.
