Local Projects
Winston Downs is ideally situated to benefit from a number of large-scale Public Works Projects in central Denver. Some of these are part of Blueprint Denver, one is an EPA Study Grant, while others are urban redevelopments and transportation solutions. My opinion is that these improvements will increase the value and desirability of Winston Downs.

EPA Smart Growth Living Streets Initiative: an implementation grant which aims to revitalize Denver’s transportation corridors into sustainable, active, multimodal, vital places that effectively move people & goods. The Leetsdale/1st Avenue Corridor will become a model for Denver and other U.S. metropolitan areas.

Buckley Annex at Lowry Spanning some 72 acres between Monaco and Quebec, First and Bayaud, plans to redevelop the area adjacent to Lowry known as the Buckley Annex are under way. The annex is currently a Department of Defense accounting facility.

Lowry Vista (landfill) Located on 80 acres in Denver, the developers of Lowry Vista envisions the former Air Force property as a thriving community. Next to 100 acres of open space and a newly remodeled golf course, Lowry Vista is a 'brownfield' redevelopment that aims to be environmentally responsible and aesthetically attractive.

Colorado Blvd Hospital District Shea Homes is planning a dynamic, vibrant neighborhood featuring fine restaurants, upscale shopping, and creative living space in a pedestrian-friendly environment at 9th and Colorado. Formerly the Health Sciences Center.

Denver Zoning Update seeks to bridge the gap that exists between current zoning and recently adopted plans such as Blueprint Denver. Denver citizens called for reform of the City’s Zoning Code in the 1989 Comprehensive Plan. This message was repeated in the Denver Comprehensive Plan 2000.  Blueprint Denver (2002) provided the vision and initial strategy to begin this effort.
