Blue Mountain registered "blue mountain resort homes" as a fictitious name. So, if you want to snag a site - it's for sale, @Benm. https://www.godaddy.com/domainsearch/find?checkAvail=1&domainToCheck=bluemountainresorthomes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benm Posted August 11, 2021 Report Share Posted August 11, 2021 (edited) on the news this AM, the natgas pipeline that was supposed to go through carbon county has been put off indefinitely by penneast and they are exploring other options (maybe another route, who knows). but it doesn't sound like anything's happening sometime soon. condos might be slightly delayed another 5 years. this was the proposed route... unrelated, i was looking at the GIS and all of the land to the left of where you drive into the summit lot is owned by blue mtn waterpark ltd partnership. deeded 2009, i guess they abandoned that tho.

Yes the water park was almost a go. The entire upper lot entrance was re done for that very reason. Then, like so many other blue projects, nada. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw that too. i was searching around on Carbon Counties website, there are some parcels owned by BM waterpark, and there are still about 12 or so parcels still owned by The Tuthill Corp. I cant quite figure out what those are, if they really have anything to do with the land the resort sits on, or if its just some left over land that was acquired along the way. i thought i read there were 33 parcels that were involved in the sale, but without really knowing the parcel id #'s for the actual land that Blue Mt sits on, im stuck at that. i searched for BMR and the likes, but havent come up with any parcels owned by them. The one article says the deeds of the sale were like July 13th, so i think they would have been recorded by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember somebody putting together a map of all of their property that was owned by Tuthill in that area. It was a huge amount of land that was on both sides of BM drive and extended down to the creek and out to the power line cut east. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if the parcels across the road and that little hill were transferred over to BMR LLC? Also, it mentioned that Tuthill Corp still owns and operates the sewage treatment plant. Is that near the snowmaking pond? If not I have no idea where that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically the Tuthill stuff is the majority of the resort, then obviously the land up to the summit parking lots is the BM water park stuff.

Schif Posted August 11, 2021 Report Share Posted August 11, 2021 I wonder why they never went through the process of reverse subdividing and made life easier for everyone by having fewer parcels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theprogram4 Posted August 11, 2021 Report Share Posted August 11, 2021 Pretty bummed out about the pipeline. I enjoy seeing the signs along the road from pissed off people. There has been a pipeline controversy in central Chester county for the past 4ish years and the concerned residents Facebook pages are pretty entertaining to read.

A friend of mine has been collecting the land surrounding his home for quite some time now, most of them he got for nothing at the delinquent tax sales. He lives at the end of a short col de sac, and has aqquired most of the land on the street. we call it "Rays Way". i have no idea what the street is actually called. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtomicSkier Posted August 13, 2021 Report Share Posted August 13, 2021 @Benm blue owns a lot more than that picture ... somewhere deep in the archives i did a very exhaustive search and posted a picture from CC's GIS.
