Denver advances $15.5M TIF package for historic Rossonian redevelopment. A long-awaited effort to restore Denver's historic Rossonian Hotel took a significant step forward in May as the Denver City Council advanced a tax increment financing (TIF) package that could provide up to $15.5 million in public financing support for the project. The proposed agreement between the City and County of Denver and the Denver Urban Renewal Authority (DURA) would help fund the redevelopment of the iconic Five Points property and surrounding parcels through future property and sales tax revenue generated by the project. Located at the intersection of Welton Street and Washington Street, the Rossonian Hotel has long been regarded as one of Denver's most significant cultural landmarks. Originally constructed in 1912, the building served as a centerpiece of Five Points' vibrant jazz scene and welcomed legendary performers including Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington and Ella Fitzgerald during its heyday. The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995 and remains a contributing structure within the Five Points Historic Cultural District. This creative and ambitious effort - led by Palisade Partners, Rossonian Development Authority, Craine Architecture, Milender White, Semple Brown, CoralTree Hospitality, along with community advocates and passionate investors - is a catalyst for cultural and economic revitalization in the Five Points neighborhood. The redevelopment includes a comprehensive restoration of the historic Rossonian building alongside new hotel accommodations, event space, food and beverage offerings, retail space and community-focused uses. Plans call for approximately 126 hotel rooms across the Rossoniacn building, adjacent new construction and portions of the existing Hooper Building. The restored Rossonian building is planned to feature 18 guest rooms along with approximately 4,800 square feet of restaurant space at street level. The adjacent annex would house 72 hotel rooms and a dedicated event space. An additional 36 hotel rooms and more than 6,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space are planned for the Hooper. According to project documents presented to Denver City Council and the Planning Board, the overall development carries an estimated cost of approximately $101 million. DURA concluded that public assistance is necessary to address financing gaps associated with the preservation of the historic structure and the broader mixed-use redevelopment effort. Under the proposed TIF arrangement, the developer would fund the majority of project costs while being reimbursed over time through incremental tax revenues generated by the completed project. The project is proposed as an amendment to the existing Welton Corridor Urban Redevelopment Area, where city officials have identified economic and physical conditions that qualify for urban renewal assistance. Planning documents note that the redevelopment aligns with several city objectives, including historic preservation, support for local businesses, economic development, job creation and reinvestment in one of Denver's most historically significant neighborhoods. If approved, the financing package would represent another major investment along the Welton Corridor and could help accelerate the long-anticipated reopening of the Rossonian. Current projections target a 2028 opening for the revitalized hotel and entertainment destination. "The Rossonian is more than a redevelopment project," city planning documents state. The effort aims to preserve an iconic piece of Denver history while creating new economic activity, hospitality offerings and cultural space in the heart of Five Points. Mayor Mike Johnston, Denver Parks & Recreation (DPR), elected officials, community leaders and project partners gathered on May 27 for The Denver Downtown Development Authority (DDDA) will invest approximately $2.7M for capital improvements at Denver Pavilions. The improvements include technology and structure
Denver becomes world's 8th LEED Platinum city. Published on May 13, 2026 The City and County of Denver announced that it has achieved LEED for Cities Platinum certification. Denver is part of a growing group to be certified using the LEED for Cities rating system. LEED, or Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, was created by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) and is the world's most widely used green building rating system. Expanding on the LEED for buildings rating system, LEED for Cities helps local leaders measure and manage progress toward a more sustainable, resilient and equitable future. Through the certification program, cities create and operationalize responsible, sustainable and specific plans for natural systems, energy, water, waste, transportation and many other factors that contribute to quality of life. Out of 150 cities across the world that are LEED certified, Denver is one of only eight to achieve LEED for Cities Platinum status in its current version, the highest recognition for urban sustainability and leadership. "Denver is leading the way in clean energy and resilience," said Mayor Mike Johnston. "This recognition reflects our commitment to powering our communities responsibly and protecting the next generation of Denverites from climate risks." Denver achieved LEED certification for implementing practical and measurable strategies and solutions aimed at improving sustainability and the standard of living for community members. LEED is designed to help buildings, communities and cities achieve high performance in key areas of social, economic and environmental sustainability. Denver's certification was driven by several high impact strategies, including: * Accelerating Clean Energy and Building Electrification Most of Denver's emissions are in its buildings. Buildings and homes are becoming cleaner and more efficient thanks to city investments in renewable energy, upgrades to aging infrastructure, and expanded incentives for clean energy technologies like heat pumps. Key efforts include the nation leading Energize Denver building performance policy, which is producing measurable results. Today, 35% of Denver's large buildings are meeting their energy efficiency targets, up from 15% three years ago. Since 2018, overall energy use among buildings 25,000 square feet and larger has dropped 9%, even as more than 400 new buildings were constructed. Other highlights include a pilot converting 11 downtown buildings from outdated steam systems to efficient electric heat pumps, and a 2026 goal to install 5,000 clean energy systems citywide. * Building a Cooler, More Resilient City To combat rising temperatures and extreme heat, Denver is expanding access to cooling programs and growing its urban tree canopy, planting 4,500 new trees last year. The city is also investing in 50 acres of water-efficient, drought-resilient green infrastructure this year. Together, these efforts help reduce heat impacts and strengthen neighborhood resilience. * Getting Around Denver Made Easier and Cleaner Denver is continuing to make major investments in walkable, bike-friendly neighborhoods and growing the network of high-quality transit, including new Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) corridors and transit efficiency infrastructure. These efforts, combined with strong transportation demand management policies, are providing more access to high quality transit and expanding sustainable mobility options for Denverites. * Enhancing Community Resilience to Extreme Weather Innovative projects like the new microgrid at city and partner facilities combine solar power with battery storage to demonstrate grid flexibility and the ability to deliver up to 24 hours a day of backup electricity during outages. Denver also scored highly in emergency preparedness, ensuring the city can respond rapidly to climate-related events. * Empowering Community-Led Climate Action Programs like Promotoras Climáticas and the city's Denver Climate Project marketing campaign are engaging people across the city, building awareness and increasing climate-friendly behaviors. Among those who saw the Denver Climate Project campaign, planned climate-friendly actions grew by 25%. These initiatives empower communities to take action. "Cities like Denver are at the forefront in our fight against climate change. Local leaders better understand the needs of their communities and how to help their residents become more resilient," said Peter Templeton, president and CEO, USGBC. "The LEED for Cities program is a framework for local governments that has transformed the way cities are planned, developed and operated to improve their overall sustainability and quality of life."

Denver opens $7.6M bid to decommission Skeel Reservoir dam at Wellshire Golf Course. By Naked Denver Staff | April 30, 2026 3333 S Colorado Blvd The City of Denver has opened bidding on a construction contract to decommission Skeel Reservoir at Wellshire Golf Course, transforming the early-1900s high-hazard dam into a 100-year stormwater detention facility and reconfigured driving range. The Department of Transportation and Infrastructure (DOTI) issued Solicitation No. 202683417 on March 24, with bids due May 14, 2026, and an estimated construction cost between $6.9 million and $7.6 million. Construction is expected to wrap by 2027. The earthen embankment dam at the southeast corner of the course was constructed in the early 1900s and carries a jurisdictional height of 16.5 feet with a storage capacity of 205 acre-feet. It is classified as high-hazard under the Colorado State Engineer's Office, meaning failure could threaten downstream lives and property. Reconfiguring the embankment and reducing storage volume is intended to remove that risk. Skeel Reservoir was originally part of the 137-acre Skeel family farm, which the Wellshire Country Club purchased in 1926 to build a Donald Ross-designed course at a cost of $300,000. The reservoir served the property's irrigation needs for decades, fed by the Highline Canal, and also offered fishing and water sports for early club members. After the Depression shuttered the private club in 1928, the City of Denver acquired the land in 1936 for $60,000 and reopened it as a public course. For most of the past century, the reservoir continued irrigating the course. That changed when Wellshire converted to a Denver Water line beneath Colorado Boulevard, abandoning the leaky Highline Canal, a system DOTI estimates lost 50%-70% percent of its volume to evaporation and seepage. With the canal disconnected, the reservoir served only as stormwater retention, and its storage volume was no longer needed. 1 / 2 images The scope of work includes regrading and filling the existing reservoir, lowering the dam and installing spillways, installing approximately 900 linear feet of open-cut 18-inch corrugated HDPE pipe, building a forebay, and grading and installing a new irrigation system. A grassed driving range landing area will be built on the dried reservoir bottom, with stormwater piped underground to the storm sewers left of hole 7. The tee line will be realigned for safety and will retain artificial teeing stations. The driving range has been closed for renovation work for several years. DOTI's operations team has been importing recycled concrete and soil from active city construction sites to dry the saturated reservoir floor and create stable access for heavy equipment. Project updates from late 2025 confirmed that stabilization was nearing completion, clearing the way for the construction bid that just dropped. Bidders must be prequalified in Category 1E(4) Piped Sewer at the $10 million monetary level, with a 22 percent MWBE participation goal. A pre-bid meeting was held April 7, an optional site visit was scheduled for April 9, and the questions deadline is April 21. Bid opening is set for 11 a.m. on May 14 via the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System (BidNet). Construction funding is partially in place, with the project team also pursuing a FEMA grant and other sources to close the gap. The project arrives as Denver continues to rethink its aging public golf and water infrastructure. Once complete, the rebuilt facility will reduce flood risk for properties downstream of Hampden Avenue while delivering a renovated practice range to one of Denver's most historic municipal courses.
Federal Appeals court upholds $14 million verdict against Denver for police brutality during 2020 protests. In a significant victory for civil liberties, the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals has affirmed a lower court's decision holding the City of Denver and its police department liable for the unconstitutional use of force against peaceful demonstrators. The ruling, issued on April 21 marks the conclusion of a high-profile legal battle stemming from the summer of 2020, when thousands took to the streets to protest the murder of George Floyd. The appellate court's decision upholds a March 2022 jury verdict that awarded $14 million in damages to 12 plaintiffs. These individuals were subjected to what the court described as unconstitutional violence, including being shot with pepper balls and rubber bullets, and being targeted with tear gas. The Tenth Circuit's ruling firmly rejected the City of Denver's arguments, maintaining that the city's failure to properly train its officers led directly to these violations of the First and Fourth Amendments. The ruling also addressed the actions of individual officers. Specifically, the court affirmed that former Denver police officer Jonathan Christian violated the Fourth Amendment rights of Elisabeth Epps, a former state representative and activist. Christian shot Epps with pepper balls while she was simply crossing the street. By denying qualified immunity to Christian and other officers, the court signaled that law enforcement cannot hide behind legal technicalities when they use excessive force against non-threatening citizens. Tim Macdonald, the ACLU of Colorado Legal Director, hailed the ruling as a landmark for police accountability. "This outcome is monumental and should be a lesson to law enforcement across the country. No police officer or municipality can escape accountability for their violence against people exercising their sacred right to peacefully protest," Macdonald states. He further emphasized the personal toll the events took on those involved, noting, "Our brave plaintiffs have endured enormous hardship for standing up in defense of Black lives and police accountability. This ruling is one step closer to justice for them, their loved ones, and all Coloradans concerned about police violence." T he injuries sustained by the protesters were severe and life-altering. According to the original lawsuit filed by the ACLU of Colorado in June 2020, plaintiffs suffered from fractured jaws, fractured discs, temporary hearing loss, and profound emotional distress. The appellate court found that the use of "less-lethal" munitions - which include pepper balls and lead-filled bags - constitutes unconstitutionally excessive force when used against protesters who are not committing serious crimes or attempting to flee. The court's decision reinforces a critical legal precedent: that the right to peaceful assembly is protected, and that the police cannot respond to such assembly with indiscriminate violence. By upholding the $14 million verdict, the Tenth Circuit has sent a clear message to municipalities that they will be held financially and legally responsible for the systemic failure to train and supervise their police forces during public demonstrations. For the plaintiffs, this final ruling represents the end of a multi-year struggle for acknowledgment and reparations for the harm they suffered while exercising their constitutional rights.
