Unveiling Renderings for the New Pedestrian Walkway in Honor of Colorado’s 150th Birthday in 2026




I unveiled new renderings of the
[link removed]
Colorado 150 Pedestrian Walkway , which will connect Coloradans to Lincoln Veterans Park and commemorate Colorado’s great history.


The Colorado 150 Pedestrian Walkway represents a public-private partnership led by the Governor’s Office and the
[link removed]
P3 Office at the Colorado Department of Personnel & Administration alongside
[link removed]
History Colorado . The project will serve as a new gateway to downtown Denver and become a major part of ongoing initiatives to revitalize the Civic Center area.


Designed by
[link removed]
Studio Gang , the international architecture and urban design firm led by Jeanne Gang, the 11,000 square foot Walkway enhances connectivity and improves accessibility among downtown Denver’s major public spaces and monuments as well as offers a unique experience that brings together art, culture, and history in commemoration of Colorado’s 150th anniversary. This design is reflective of Colorado’s diverse topography, specifically the state’s flowing rivers. The project is expected to be completed in July 2026.


I am thrilled that Coloradans can now visualize this walkway and its positive impact on our community. Now, when Coloradans of all ages come to visit our State Capitol, they can more easily access and enjoy Lincoln Veterans Park while enjoying art from local artists.
