Abstract
This $11,000,000 river enhancement project is located at the northern edge of the City of Denver in the Globeville neighborhood. This high profile project, driven by the Mayor's Office and the Urban Drainage and Rood Control District, constructed a greenway trail, aquatic and terrestrial habitats, reclaimed and stabilized the river banks, constructed flood levees and floodwalls to provide 100-year flood protection, enhanced the wetland and riparian areas along the river, and provided educational signage throughout the project reach. This paper describes the project and provides insight into the need for public participation.
