    Central Park: Denver's Vision of 21st Century Urban Living

    When Stapleton International Airport closed in 1995, Denver embarked on one of America's most ambitious urban renewal projects. Today, Central Park (renamed in 2020) stands as proof that thoughtful master planning creates extraordinary communities. Spanning 4,700 acres with over 50 parks, miles of trails, and a commitment to sustainability, Central Park offers a lifestyle that simply doesn't exist elsewhere in Denver.

    The neighborhood's housing diversity is remarkable: energy-efficient townhomes starting around $450K, paired homes ideal for first-time buyers, traditional single-family homes from $600K-$1M, and custom estates exceeding $1.5 million. Multiple builders offer new construction with modern floor plans, smart home technology, and sustainable features that older Denver neighborhoods simply can't match.

    Families love Central Park for its award-winning DPS schools like Odyssey School of Denver and DSST, the walkable Stanley Marketplace dining and entertainment district, the 80-acre Central Park itself, and the genuine sense of community fostered by front porches, neighborhood pools, and year-round events.
