After a snowy March kept crews from working on the new Pikes Peak Summit Complex for all but five out of 20 days, workers are on a tight timeline to open the new attraction by the end of May as planned. Any weather delays will impact that, said Jack Glavan, manager of Pikes Peak.
But construction is in final stages with main rooms getting their finishing touches after construction started in late 2019, he said. It’s really exciting to see it, Glavan said.
The new Summit House, expected to cost between $60 to $65 million, will better accommodate the more than half a million visitors who visit the mountain top each year than the previous one. It will also offer an interactive indoor exhibit gallery and interpretive trails around the summit that will describe the views and share stories about the peak’s history.

The visitors’ center, which has greeted tourists, sightseers and hikers since 1964, will be torn down and removed from the site.
“The former house had dutifully served its purpose for almost 60 years,” spokeswoman Vanessa Zink said. “It was time to rebuild and refresh.”
The new complex promises an enhanced experience for visitors, including an interactive indoor exhibit gallery and interpretive trails around the summit that will describe the views and share stories about the peak’s history.
