ASSOCIATION NEWS AAMD Announces New Lease and Office Expansion A AMD is pleased to announce an office renovation and expansion as part of our new lease that will keep the Association at 7100 E. Belleview Ave. through 2027. Since 2012, AAMD and the Colorado Apartment Association have been headquartered at its current location, which features a large education center, medium sized education and meeting room and other smaller meeting spaces for members to utilize. "The goal of the AAMD Office creating more of a community space for our members has not only worked, but far exceeded our expectations," describes Mark Williams, AAMD & CAA Executive Vice President. "We've hosted over 800 meetings, forums, classes etc in the past six years; so we are committing to this location and expanding with even more spaced dedicated to the members and this goal." As a part of AAMD's strategic plan to create a hands-on maintenance training program, the expansion will add over 1,200 sq.ft. almost entirely dedicated to a new training center where hands-on instruction and education will be focused on our maintenance teams. In addition, we will be expanding our medium sized “glass room” to accommodate growing class sizes. Construction at the AAMD office will be overseen by Spyder Construction and interior design has been coordinated by Studio R Designs. A full list of all the AAMD member partners who are contributing to our build-out will be included in upcoming issues of Trends magazine and other media. We're excited about a fresh look as we enter our 51st year of serving the multifamily industry. As our office will be under construction over several weeks through the spring, please “pardon our dust” as we expand to better our education program, member benefits and customer service.
