VILLAGE CENTER STATION<br />

FINAL OFFICE TOWER<br />

COMPLETED<br />

SPECTRUM COMMUNICATIONS<br />

IS SOLE TENANT<br />

This summer, Shea Properties completed construction of<br />

Village Center Station II (Spectrum Plaza), the final building<br />

of their Village Center Station development located on the<br />

west side of I-25, just north of the Arapahoe Light Rail<br />

Station. The Class AA building sits on 5.1 acres and<br />

encompasses a 12-story office tower, a 7- level parking<br />

structure with 1,200 car parking spaces, a 2-story wrapper<br />

building for screening, all totaling 325,000 square feet. The<br />

development included extension of the Plaza that was<br />

completed in 2015, and 9,500 square feet of retail/restaurant<br />

space within the ground floor of the wrapper building,<br />

adjacent to the plaza.<br />

“Spectrum Plaza was the final piece that makes Shea’s vision<br />

of developing a high quality development of three office<br />

towers, with a pedestrian plaza and community gathering<br />

place a reality,” said Mayor Ron Rakowsky. “The<br />

development speaks for itself as it embodies a stunning<br />

architectural statement that portrays perfection for an office<br />

environment in Greenwood Village and along the I-25<br />

corridor.”<br />

Shea Properties development at Village Center Station, which<br />

have been or will be LEED green certified, includes<br />

construction of a total of three office towers; Village Center<br />

Station I was completed in 2008; the second tower, the<br />

CoBank Center was completed in December 2015; and the<br />

third and final building — Spectrum Plaza is now complete<br />

and is fully occupied by Spectrum (Charter)<br />

Communications and will be home to 1,800 employees.<br />

“The three-building campus, adjacent to the plaza, is a<br />

realization of the original master plan. We have been true to<br />

a vision of creating a modern office campus energized by a<br />

common outdoor amenity and gathering place with ground<br />

level-retail. We are proud to see the last piece of the puzzle<br />

being developed,” said Peter Culshaw, Executive Vice<br />

President, Shea Properties.<br />

The development of the Village Center and its nearly 98<br />

acres around the Arapahoe Light Rail Station also included<br />

completion in 2017 of Granite Place at Village Center on the<br />

east side of I-25 adjacent to the light rail station. Granite<br />

Place at Village Center includes 280,000-square foot office<br />

property on 5.24 acres, consisting of a 10-story, Class AA<br />

office building with a separate six-story, 986 parking space<br />

structure. The building is located within walking distance of<br />

the Arapahoe Light Rail Station.<br />

“For nearly 10 years, we have been working with major<br />

landowners on the development of our Village Center on<br />

both sides of I-25,” said Mayor Ron Rakowsky. “We<br />

appreciate the investment the business community has made<br />

in Greenwood Village and high quality development that has<br />

made our community a special place to conduct business and<br />

work.”<br />
