updated Burnham Yard Neighborhood Renderings

(August 2026: Update concept that will continue to be refined based on commmunity feedback)

On Aug. 4, the Denver Broncos shared updated master plan renderings for Burnham Yard, the team’s preferred site for a world-class stadium and vibrant mixed-use neighborhood.

The latest preliminary Burnham Yard site layout and neighborhood plans were developed through extensive community feedback, in partnership with Denver-based Tryba as the Broncos’ master plan architect.

The new site layout, which will continue to evolve, features four distinct neighborhood districts: the North End, Village Center, Turntable and South End.

Updated designs for Burnham Yard are based on greater technical analysis and a better understanding of the community’s ideas about how the area can enhance the quality of life for local residents by:

• Eliminating the 11th Ave. crossing and slowing vehicles to improve pedestrian and bike safety, along with closing additional crossings on event days.
• Distributing event traffic north and south, away from existing residential areas.
• Connecting the neighborhood by extending historic streets through Burnham Yard, including adjusting 8th Avenue into a slower main street feel.
• Removing the freight rail tracks and crossings to reduce conflict and transition those into a new tree-lined trail.
• Increased emphasis on larger parks and green spaces – at least 11-12 football fields of public open space – for families to enjoy every day.

Designs will continue to evolve throughout the planning process based on further analysis, coordination with RTD, Denver Water and the city, and input from stakeholders.
