GE Johnson Construction Company, headquartered in Colorado Springs, was founded in 1967 and has completed more than $7 billion in construction projects in 14 states. Projects include: The World Arena, Broadmoor Hotel West Renovation, Penrose Hospital East Tower and many more. "We are truly excited to be part of the team and humbled by this incredible opportunity," said Jim Johnson, president and CEO of GE Johnson.

With much anticipation, and after years of waiting, a new Pikes Peak Summit Visitor Center is another step closer to becoming a reality. The City of Colorado Springs and its project partners issued a Request For Proposal in October 2015 seeking the services of a qualified CM/GC firm to construct four new facilities at the top of Pikes Peak, replacing the four existing fifty-year-old structures. Through a highly competitive selection process, the local company of GE Johnson has been selected for the high profile and challenging construction project at the 14,115 foot summit of Pikes Peak.

 

The GE Johnson team will work hand-in-hand with the project's architectural team to finalize design and materials selection, as well as address technical considerations related to construction of the 26,000 foot visitor center in an extremely harsh environment. The successful completion of this project will restore areas of the mountain top and provide an outstanding visitor experience.
