Adjacent to LoDo, this newly developed area of the city is booming with new lofts and residential projects. The entire area was formerly a rail yard, but today has become a neigborhood with lofts, retail, and light rail access.

This photo shows some of the current Central Platte Valley construction. (Two cranes on the left side; lofts under construction on the right side). 

More construction in the other direction. (Mar 31, 2002)

This is the Denver Skyline and Union Station as seen from Riverfront Park in the Central Platte Valley.

Here is a different angle of some of the construction shown two photos ago. (Mar 31, 2002)

In addition to easy access to downtown and light rail lines, the Central Platte Valley is attractive due to its proximity to entertainment venues, such as the Pepsi Center. (Shown here).

The Pepsi center is where the Colorado Avalanche, (NHL), and Denver Nuggets, (NBA), play.

This is the Legacy Tower under construction. It is the first office building being built in the Central Platte Valley, and the first large, private office building being constructed in downtown Denver in 15 years.

This is just a prelude of things to come.

A photo of barren ground that has resulted from the removal and realignment of many railroad tracks. This land will become home to many condos, apartments, offices, and retail spaces in the next decade. It has extreme potential because of its proximity to downtown.
