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 />
