Unleash the Fun: Denargo Market Debuts Exciting New Dog Park and Sport Courts!

Denargo Market’s New Dog Park and Sport Courts Now Open

New Public Amenities Deliver as Part of Phase 1 of 17-acre Mixed-Use Project

Recently, joint venture partners Golub & Company and FORMATIV celebrated the grand opening of the newly revamped dog park and multi-sport court at Denargo Market. Located along the South Platte River just north of Downtown Denver, these amenities are part of the first phase of development on the 17-acre mixed-use project—one of the largest urban infill projects currently under construction in Denver.  

To mark the opening, the development team hosted a neighborhood celebration on October 5, inviting the community to explore the recently opened spaces over complimentary coffee from Goodhart Coffee and treats for both people and pups from Wafflerita and Three Dog Bakery. The event also featured a preview of the forthcoming community garden at Denargo Market, managed in collaboration with Denver Urban Gardens, and a pet adoption event with L.O.L.A.’s Rescue.

“Our goal is to create a welcoming urban environment where residents and visitors can connect, recreate, and take advantage of the exceptional riverfront location,” said Laura Newman, Vice President of Investment & Development at Golub & Company. “These first amenities are a reflection of our commitment to going above and beyond to deliver a great public realm experience for Denver. We’re proud to see these first amenities coming to fruition and look forward to delivering the remaining public realm improvements in Q3 2025.” 

 

The new sports court is part of four acres of dedicated public green space at Denargo Market. Designed for a range of activities, from basketball to pickleball, the courts provide a designated place to play for residents of all ages. Pickleball, currently the fastest-growing sport in the U.S., has seen a surge in popularity since the pandemic, and the addition of this dedicated pickle court contributes to Denver’s expanding network of courts to meet high demand. The upgraded dog park features enhanced landscaping and play areas, creating a safe and welcoming environment where residents and their pets can socialize and enjoy the outdoors.

Additional forthcoming features in Phase I of Denargo’s mixed-use project development include an activated pedestrian plaza, a half-acre green lawn and pop-jet fountain, much-needed pedestrian sidewalks and protected bike lanes, an improved riverfront park experience, and an expansive nature-based playground. Horizontal development is expected to be completed by Q3 2025. Once finished, these improvements will further enrich the pedestrian experience and strengthen connections between Brighton Boulevard and the South Platte River. 

“The sport courts and dog park are a significant milestone for us, and they are just the beginning,” said Sean Campbell, CEO of FORMATIV. “We are redefining the experience in this part of the city by introducing expansive public spaces connected by purposeful vertical development. Denargo Market will be the best place to work, to live, and to connect with friends, day or night – all within one of the most dynamic neighborhoods in the city.” 

Zoned for over three million square feet of vertical development, Denargo Market is slated to feature an elevated blend of office, retail, hospitality, and mixed-income residential across 17 acres with new connections to the river and the city.
