RTD held a public meeting on January 26th to report the progress on the planning process for the Historic Building at Denver Union Station. There are three separate groups that have been engaged by RTD in the planning process. A consultant, Economic & Planning Systems, has been engaged to run potential scenario financial analyses, a select panel of real estate and finance experts to lend their advice based on relevant experience and a stakeholder group, on which the City of Denver, Historic Denver, Downtown Denver Partnership, Denver Union Station Project Authority, LoDo District, Inc. and Union Station Advocates are all represented. These groups have been meeting regularly and sometimes together to generate a list of design and programming criteria, determine potential uses and suggest a future process for implementation. The goal is to forward a consensus opinion to the RTD Board of Directors by end of February. The Board is scheduled to decide on a strategy at its March 15th board meeting. USA would appreciate any opinions that you wish to convey. Please take a look at the most recent summary power point presentation and let us know your thoughts. You can send them to info@unionstationadvocates.org.
