There was a neighborhood meeting - partially sponsored by the University of Denver - a few weeks ago to discuss possible changes to the Colorado Boulevard and University of Denver Light Rail Stations. I heard about it only at the last minute, and couldn't attend, but did learn someone from the Washington Park Profile, the neighborhood newspaper, was going to be there. I am interested in this because DU is hellbent on moving the DU Station to the very corner where my building is located, so the riders will arrive across the street from a proposed "Gateway Village" the university wants to build. What makes me nervous is that I have seen a campus map in the DU Vice Chancellor's Office that shows the Light Rail Station in the exact spot my building is located. Perhaps DU is thinking about putting the station on the other side of the street, but it has released no drawings. There was no article about this in the February issue of the Profile, and perhaps that is a good thing. It might mean no major changes proposed. On the other hand, DU is used to getting its way no matter what. I just hope they give us warning before the wrecking ball arrives.
