Projects
Downtown
Character
GURA is
spearheading a comprehensive review and
visioning process designed to solicit community
input on future development of the historic
downtown. The link above shows several
documents and surveys relevant to this project.
Gateway
Station
The $18 million Gateway Station project, which received a $1.25 million grant from GURA, is a new mixed-use development at 13th and Washington with underground parking, 35 luxury residences, and more than 20,000 square feet for shops, offices and restaurants. Gateway Station is the successful culmination of over two decades of efforts to redevelop this corner.
The former 95-space parking lot on Jackson between 13th and 12th has been replaced by a 268-space, GURA-funded free public parking garage. Development on the adjacent parcels to the north and south of the garage will occur at some point in the future. Construction of the garage, acquisition of the land, and necessary environmental remediation required over $1 million.
Demolition of the Hesteds and Home Imports building kicked off with a public celebration on August 12, 2006, and continued through mid-September. A crowd gathered to watch as the bricks came tumbling down. The project is nearing completion almost two years later.
Prior to the demolition, GURA and NexCore worked closely with a historic preservation consultant to salvage as much of the original façade of the 100 year old building as feasible. The elements and bricks that could be re-used were disassembled by hand and preserved for use in re-construction of the Linder building facade.

Millstone
Condominiums
This much-anticipated condominium project by Sovereign Homes of Colorado has added new vitality to downtown Golden with 78 residential units. Located along Clear Creek on 11th between Washington and Ford, Millstone includes three 4-story loft-style buildings with parking.
Millstone at Clear Creek Square is part of a mixed-use development project. As early partners, the Golden Civic Foundation conveyed the land to GURA. GURA then contributed the land, partial funding and design work for the 5.5-acre project that also includes the three-story Clear Creek Square office building, the two-story Jackson Court office building, and a 315-space parking garage.

Jackson
Court
After breaking ground in March, 2006, redevelopment of the vacant lot adjacent to the parking garage on Jackson and 12th Streets was completed in August, 2006. The result is an attractive two-story office and retail building that bridges the gap between the Clear Creek Square office building and Washington Avenue. The owners moved their 11-person firm, Studio DH Architecture, from LODO to the second floor of its new owner-occupied building, joining Golden’s thriving downtown community. Office and retail space is available for lease.
Jackson Court was the final piece of the four-phase Clear Creek Square project. GURA contributed the land, $137,000 in site improvements, and parking to enable the project to move forward.
