The City of Denver, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the River Mile development are all working to prevent floods along the South Platte River.

The River Mile stretches for 62 acres along the Platte almost to Empower Field at Mile High.On May 8, just two days before Denver got walloped by torrential rains and flooding, the city signed a new agreement partnering with the U.S.

Kurtis says that Revesco and KSE have worked closely with the city — particularly the Department of Transportation and Infrastructure — and the Army Corps of Engineers to be sure its river restoration will check every box. While he expects the River Mile will inquire about getting some of the federal funding, Kurtis says it still plans to fund the project independently.

“It’s the right way to solve our issue while still doing the public benefit,” he says of the choice. “We want to restore the river because it's good for the river, but it also makes it an enjoyable place for people to be. That's our business, building buildings with people in mind.”
