News We’re Watching 

By the G.E.S. Gazette staff

The G.E.S. Gazette staff follows stories from local media outlets about events and issues concerning the Globeville, Elyria and Swansea neighborhoods and the RiNo Art District. Here are a few stories we’re watching this month.

On April 13, Denverite’s Kyle Harris reported that the sidewalk and road construction project surrounding Prodigy Coffee in Globeville has had a serious impact on the business’s bottom line. Supporters are invited to help offset Prodigy’s shortfall in business by donating to its Colorado Gives page or swinging by (despite the hurdles) for a cup of coffee and a pastry.

Parker Yamasaki included the River North Arts District in her March 31 analysis “Colorado started creative districts 13 years ago. Are they working?

On March 14, Denverite’s Rebecca Tauber wrote, “Denver’s getting millions from the feds to transform the massive Colfax-Federal intersection, parts of Globeville and Elyria-Swansea.”

On March 6, Michael Booth wrote “Suncor gets tougher ‘forever chemicals’ and toxins limits in new Colorado water permit,” for the Colorado Sun. A month later, on April 8, “Conservation and environmental justice groups file administrative appeal of Suncor water permit.

Kevin Beaty continued his Globeville and Elyria-Swansea coverage for Denverite with his March 1 “North Denver won a health study when they sued to stop I-70’s expansion. Here are the first results” and March 3 “Mayor Johnston pledges ‘community ownership’ for the last slice of the National Western Center” stories.
