Broomfield: Go Big or Go Home


I recently attended a presentation conducted by Broomfield city and county officials, outlining and updating development plans.  I was actually a bit overwhelmed by the end; there's a lot going on, and the future growth promises to bolster recent momentum.

There are currently six single-family residential projects either proposed or underway:
Lambertson Farms Landscape Plan

  • Anthem - southeast of Highway 7 and Sheridan Parkway, 3,500 units.  Anthem is composed of Anthem Ranch, 1,700 age-restricted units, and Anthem Highlands, 1,800 single-family units.  Homes range from $240,000 to $570,000, and the development is about 40% completed.
  • Ashwood - west of Zuni Street and north of 144th Avenue, 32 units.  Homes range from $500,000 to $700,000, and is 20% completed.
  • Spruce Meadows - west of Zuni Street and just north of the Ashwood neighborhood, 73 units.  Homes range from $800,000 to $2,000,000, and is just over 60% completed.
  • Silverleaf - northeast of 144th Avenue and Lowell Boulevard, 71 units.  Homes range from $420,000 to $650,000, and Taylor Morrison will begin pulling permits this year.
  • Lambertson Farms (McKay Shores) - northwest of 136th Avenue and Huron Street, 192 units.  This development also includes 357 additional units (townhouses and apartments), as well as two commercial centers and athletic fields.  Single-family dwellings range from $350,000 to $1,200,000 and is just beginning construction.
  • Skyestone - Simms Street and 108th Avenue, 432 units.  The site construction for these patio homes is underway.
In addition, there are six mixed-use developments planned or proposed for northeast Broomfield:
  • North Park - 935 acres, will include a town center, 17 million square feet of commercial development, and up to 6,000 multi-family residential units.
  • Palisade - 155 acres, currently includes Childrens Hospital and a Federal Records building. It's zoned for 500 single-family dwellings, 500-multi-family dwellings, 1.5 million square feet of commercial development, and a proposed 203-unit multi-family residential project.
  • Highlands - 145 acres, zoned for both residential and commercial development, including an 11 acre park and 800 residential units.
  • Northlands - 132 acres, including retail, commercial and 325 multi-family residential units.
  • Seven25 - 134 acres of mixed-use development, including 300 multi-family units.
  • 257 Land - 500 acres, including commercial and office space as well as 1,200 single-family units and 1,500 multi-family units.
On the south side of the city you'll also find, in various stages of construction:

Arista's aloft Hotel
  • Avenue 120th Apartments - 120th Avenue and Lowell Boulevard, 302 multi-family units.
  • Harvest Station -  Wadsworth Boulevard and 118th Avenue, 536 multi-family units plus commercial.
  • Arista - Uptown Apartments, 272 units, Venue Apartments, 116 units, AMLI Apartments, 166 units, and 62 paired KB homes.
  • Parkway Circle - US-36 and the Northwest Parkway, 1 million square feet of commercial development including the Hyatt House Hotel, and 648 multi-family units.
  • Broomfield Business Center - Northwest Parkway and Via Varra, commercial, office, retail and 500 multi-family units.
  • Interlocken - Camden Flatirons, 424 multi-family units, AMLI, 374 multi-family units.
  • Carmel - Coalton Road and Summit Boulevard, 1,075 multi-family units.
Whew!  After a severe drop-off in building permits the past three years, projections for 2012 and 2013 show a significant increase, especially for multi-family residential projects.  Check the city's website for an updated map of approved residential projects and other development updates.

Of course, all of this construction means simultaneous pursuance of infrastructure goals, such as transportation and water supply, which city officials purport to be on top of.  Check in here in the future while I follow the progress of these various projects, and let me know if you'd like to get an inside peek into any of them.
