Session #: 046-137
Presenter(s): Panel Session Length: 1:15 hr.
Program: 2006 ULI Fall Meeting Date: 10-2006
Ten years ago, Denver had two professional sports teams, a 48-year-old football stadium, and a 21-year-old arena. Today, Denver has become Sports Town USA, home to three new sports venues, seven professional sports teams, and a downtown culture based largely on the support of Denver's teams. The result is a revitalized downtown and a significant economic boost; an unprecedented increase in downtown businesses; and new residential, hotel, transportation, and retail development. Hear the stories from the people behind the scenes of Denver's most significant economic drivers, how they have changed the perspective on Denver, and how you can too.
