“Developer Earl Robertson, who four years ago gave up his 50 percent stake in the redevelopment project around the former Lowell Elementary School, recently assumed full ownership of the project.

Two limited liability companies controlled by Robertson purchased 11 undeveloped acres in the 58-acre Lowell area and six commercial condominiums in the Poet Lofts building, which was constructed as part of the project.

Robertson declined to disclose the purchase price, which wasn’t listed in El Paso County land records.

In taking over the Lowell project, Robertson said he hopes to accelerate development of the remaining land at the site, southeast of Rio Grande Street and Nevada Avenue on the south edge of downtown Colorado Springs.”
