The publisher of magazines in Manhattan, the Hamptons, Los Angeles and Miami will bring his concept to Aspen this spring.

Aspen Peak should hit newsstands with 40,000 copies on Memorial Day, said publisher Jason Binn and owner of Niche Media LLC. Niche publishes GOTHAM magazine in New York City, LOS ANGELES CONFIDENTIAL, and HAMPTONS in New York's summer resort community on Long Island. "I've been looking at the Aspen Market for the last six or seven years, but there's always a time and place for everything," Binn said on Thursday. "It's going to be a lifestyle publication as a whole, with culture, fashion, art, entertainment, and business." Binn launched OCEAN DRIVE magazine in Miami in 1993, and now co-publishes it with Jerry Powers. In 1996 Binn took over then 20-year old HAMPTONS magazine. GOTHAM was launched in 2001 and LOS ANGELES CONFIDENTIAL in 2002. Missouri Heights resident Leigh Jude Vogel will be the magazine's executive editor. Vogel has been a resident in the valley for two years, free lance writing, editing and working in public relations. "I am thrilled that via ASPEN PEAK I can contribute to celebrating and highlighting our community for reader in the valley and throughout the country," she said.
