61st & Peña Station Development

Kaplan Kirsch represented the City and County of Denver in a public-private partnership (P3) to develop the on-airport 61st and Peña Boulevard rail station as a transit-oriented development project. The project also includes the development of private off-airport land. Our involvement included real estate, public and private finance, land use, federal airport regulation, and other regulatory matters. As part of this work, we prepared the master agreement between the City and County of Denver’s Department of Aviation and Rail Stop LLC (the owner of the private property surrounding the station site) regarding development and infrastructure funding for approximately 60 acres of property around the transit station.
