What future do you want
for East Central Denver?

City planners have been working steadily for the last few months to set the stage for the launch of a neighborhood planning process in the East Central Planning Area, which includes the neighborhoods on either side of Colfax Avenue between Broadway and  Colorado Boulevard. 


To kick off the process, the online survey linked below seeks input from locals on likes, dislikes, what's missing, and big ideas for the neighborhoods.

More about the East Central Area Plan

The East Central Planning Area neighborhoods—Capitol Hill, North Capitol Hill, Cheesman Park, Congress Park, City Park and City Park West—contain a rich mix of amenities, jobs, and housing options, and remain among the most dynamic places in the city. The area’s outdated plans coupled with additional changes on the horizon—including plans to improve City Park, add Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) along Colfax Avenue, and new amenities such as Civic Center Transit Station and the Carla Madison Recreation Center—make East Central a top priority for engaging the community in a new plan..


The Neighborhood Planning Initiative provides a great opportunity to establish the community’s vision for maintaining and enhancing the quality of life in these neighborhoods for decades to come. The above survey is the first of several activities, both online and in person, that will take place in the coming months.
