PLANS APPROVED FOR VIBRANT MULTI-USE DEVELOPMENT OF VACANT LAND BETWEEN LINCOLN AVE. AND SKYRIDGE HOSPITAL

Spurred forward by positive 2014 news about construction of the southeast light rail extension, RidgeGate’s developers are preparing to develop the area around the future Sky Ridge Station The 28 now-vacant acres that front Interstate 25 south of Lincoln Avenue will teem with life in a vision shared by the City of Lone Tree and RidgeGate’s developers.

The Lone Tree City Council approved the subarea plan during its Jan. 6 meeting.

A portion of the area is now home to a Hampton Inn and AMLI RidgeGate apartments — formerly The Vue. In the future, the strip of land east of Park Meadows Boulevard and south of Lincoln Avenue also will include an Embassy Suites hotel, a light rail station with limited parking, a plaza, parks, restaurants, shops, offices and another apartment complex.

Those uses, in such close proximity to major employer like Charles Schwab and Sky Ridge Medical Center, add up to a vibrant future gathering place.
