Gates Project or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Urban Redevelopments

Filed Under business, denver, economy, real estate 

I have never been a big fan of the new Denver urban redevelopments: Lowry and Stapleton. When I first moved to Denver, Lowry was an aging military base and Stapleton was an airport. Things changed when friends of mine moved into these urban redevelopments. They’re vibrant neighborhoods. They’re near the airport, city, zoo, museums, restaurants, and more importantly for my friends they’re family friendly.

Enter the Gates Project:

From fan belts to greenbelts - at long last the urban revival of the former Gates Rubber plant is taking shape.

It’s going to be a while before the Gates Project will be complete. I’ve learned to embrace these urban redevelopments and I’m looking forward to having another Linens and Things, Office Depot, Chili’s, et. al. fill our landscape. Who knows they may even add a Chipotle or a Qdoba or both.

    Can’t agree with you more and the best way to take it is that the project will be much, much nicer than how the site presently looks.
