FORT COLLINS — Colorado State University and the city of Fort Collins on Tuesday closed on a land exchange that will enable CSU to build a research center.
The transaction will provide CSU with a 143-acre parcel at the southwest corner of Prospect Road and Interstate 25. In exchange, the city’s Natural Areas Program will obtain 267 acres at the northern end of the Foothills Campus, which expands the Reservoir Ridge Natural Area.
The university plans to use the I-25 land to develop a CSU-themed and -branded office and research center with a focus on renewable-energy companies.
