The Project
The Denver Broncos football team stadium sits on 55 acres in Denver along the South Platte River across from downtown and within the historically underserved Sun Valley neighborhood. The stadium owners and the City created a vision plan for the stadium to reconnect the site to Downtown and surrounding neighborhoods as well as the river with a mix of uses and year round activation.
Our Role
While at the City of Denver, Gretchen served on the Master Plan project team as City staff. She highlighted the built environment and health disparities with residents in the Sun Valley neighborhood and advocated for strategies for the stadium redevelopment to expand access to opportunity for residents including multimodal transportation improvements, access to jobs and educational opportunities, affordable housing, expanded parks and open space, and healthy food access.
