Pearl Arts District, an ambitious proposal to build a new Boulder neighborhood around a future passenger train station and a performing arts venue, cleared an important early hurdle this week as the Boulder Planning Board gave its blessing to a zoning change necessary to bring developer Conscience Bay Co.’s vision to life.  That vision, centered around a venue that could be used for film screenings, performances and parties during the Sundance Film Festival and beyond, also includes a hotel, shopping and hundreds of residences. on Facebook on LinkedIn
