Reimagining Downtown Denver,
One Storefront at a Time
Denver Economic Development & Opportunity and the Downtown Denver Partnership have teamed up to activate storefronts on Denver’s iconic 16th Street commercial corridor by reducing barriers to testing out a downtown location. After a Round 1 Pilot stage, Round 2 expands on and enhances the original program design, offering three application tracks for retail entrepreneurs at different stages of business development:

Maker Track

Explorer Track

Traveler Track
For Colorado-based retail entrepreneurs looking to develop their brand before operating a storefront.
For experienced Colorado-based retail store owners looking to test out a downtown Denver location.
For successful retail brands looking to expand into downtown Denver.
