Fitzsimons Area Urban Renewal

Aurora, Colorado

Client: City of Aurora Urban Renewal Department

The Fitzsimons Redevelopment will address redevelopment opportunities along its edges. The redevelopment will be organized to function as a catalyst, with the perimeter of the campus planned with a strong interface along the Colfax commercial corridor. The City of Aurora Urban Renewal Department has identified three target urban renewal sites: a site between Potomac Street and Interstate 225, a site straddling the Ursula axis south of Fitzsimons and a site immediately west of Peoria. Development planning for these and other sites will be aimed directly at the needs of the UCHSC and Bioscience Park but will be balanced with a program of the neighborhood services also. Design Workshop completed the master plan for the City of Aurora Urban Renewal Department.
