Today, DenverInfill spotted some movement over by Coors Field at the stadium’s “West Lot” parking area. While we do not have any details on whether construction has officially started on the Colorado Rockies Mixed-Use project, there is a strong indicator that pre-construction activities are taking place; namely, the removal of the surface parking lot.

Surface parking lots are the soul-sucking black holes in our urban fabric so their removal is something to be celebrated. Here are a couple photos of a freshly eradicated parking lot.

Since this development will be a full city block, it is going to fill quite the gap by Coors Field.

As we mentioned above, construction has not officially started but we will keep a keen eye on this site as this exciting development rolls forward.
