ALEXANDER LANE<br />

EQUESTRIAN PARK<br />

I would like to introduce you to the<br />

Alexander Lane Equestrian Park.<br />

The 2.4-acre park is located at 2501<br />

East Alexander Lane; nestled in the<br />

heart of rural Greenwood Village<br />

Former<br />

Councilmember<br />

Jerry Presley,<br />

Mayor George<br />

Lantz, and former<br />

Councilmember<br />

Tom Dougherty.<br />

with access to the High Line Canal<br />

and several natural equestrian creek<br />

crossings. The Park also provides a trail<br />

course, a cross country course, and a<br />

riding arena. Equestrians may only<br />

access the Park by horseback. The<br />

Village purchased the land in 2002<br />

and worked closely with the <strong>GV</strong><br />

equestrian community to develop the<br />

design of the arena and training<br />

features completing the park in 2007.<br />

Partial funding for the park was<br />

provided by an Arapahoe County<br />

Open Space Sales and Use Tax grant.<br />

It is an unusual treasure.<br />

THANK YOU<br />

COUNCILMEMBERS<br />
