Simplified street map of Clear Creek Corridor area


The Heart of Golden project aims to make the Clear Creek Corridor more useable and desirable for residents while providing needed space for Police and City services. Phase 1 of the the Heart of Golden intends to move the Police and Municipal Building from the Creek Corridor to east of Washington Avenue. Phase 2 includes refining the Creek Corridor with more resident-specific amenities.

In 2019, Molson Coors put 7.27 acres of land and an office building up for sale. This created a rare opportunity for the City to free up the Clear Creek Corridor for resident use by relocating Police and City services. An expert study found that fixing up the old office building to meet Police and City needs would cost almost as much as building a new place that would work better for the City. Plus, purchasing the property presented an opportunity for the City to control the future of this property rather than it being controlled by a developer. City Council decided to buy the land and tear down the building, ensuring we can design a building that fits what the residents want and the Police and City require.

This project is a big and rare chance to make Golden even better. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to enhance our community, improve Police and City services, and ensure that the Heart of Golden reflects the values and wishes of our residents.
