Project Profile

Owner:  Denver’s Regional Transportation District (RTD)

Use: Master Planning & Conceptual Design for Transit Oriented Development

Denver’s Regional Transportation District (RTD), the General Services Administration and the City of Lakewood requested a master program to serve the public.

This study was a component in the decision-making process for determining the final alignment of a light rail line. The major objectives were to maximize property values, increase the tax base and develop livable neighborhoods. The architects teamed with Parsons Brinckerhoff to analyze alternative locations for an Intermodal Facility to accommodate a future RTD western light rail line. The Master Program for the facility included a conceptual design for transit points and planning for residential, office, retail, commercial space and a future pedestrian overpass. A centrally-located plaza and a parking garage were additional amenities.

*This project was undertaken when Aleksandr Sheykhet worked for OZ Architecture.
