'Denver would receive at least $65 million dollars in community benefits in exchange for lifting a $2 million conservation easement at the long-closed Park Hill golf course.'
an editorial
Profits – but not the people who actually live in the community – appear to be The Post’s only calculus on Park Hill. So here are some additional figures that The Post should have included in its consideration: In 2000, 70% of the community identified as Black, and the average home price was around $250,000. Today, Northeast Park Hill is 37% Black, and the average home price is over $650,000. And city-wide, there is a shortage of more than 50,000 affordable homes.
We launched a comprehensive community-wide visioning process to inform the negotiating team’s priorities. Ultimately, we worked to secure guaranteed rental and for-sale affordable housing, rent-free land for a grocery store and field house, and funding for the 303 ArtWay Heritage Trail. And because we’ve all seen this happen elsewhere, we wanted protections in case the land is flipped or sold to another developer.
