In a statement, Josh Purvis, managing residential partner for Thompson Thrift, said theLanding at Lemay is in response to Fort Collins' ongoing growth, which has seen the city'spopulation jump from 118,000 two decades ago to more than 170,000 today.Some estimates have forecast that the city will reach the 185,000 mark before the end of thedecade.That growth, said Purvis, has also created a "strong demand for upscale multi-familyhousing."Work on the project is expected to launch later this summer, with an anticipated completiondate of late 2025.Established in 1986, Thompson Thrift, named in honor of founding partners John Thompsonand Paul Thrift, is headquartered in Terre Haute, Indiana.The company is currently working on a project called Alta25 in Colorado Springs.

63GALLUP REPORTINDICATES NEEDFOR IN-PERSON,ENGAGEDWORKPLACESIf an average person’s work hours wereaggregated at the end of their career, it wouldtotal approximately 13 continuous years.Work consumes so much time and energythat if it doesn’t go well, it can become apsychological drain that impacts employeeproductivity and engagement. Numerousstudies have shown that mental well-beingat work is on the decline.Has remote work hurt employees and is ittime to return to the workplace to boostsocial connections, receive in-personmentoring and reduce isolation? The answermay be yes, but there is also a need foremployers to create supportive and well-managed workplaces.Gallup’s annual State of the Global Workplacereport found that just over half of employeesin North America are not engaged (51%),meaning they are uninspired by their workand do the bare minimum, and 16% areactively disengaged and seeking a newemployer.
