Boulder released a public guide September 9 explaining the long development of Alpine-Balsam. The city describes the site’s future as a combination of affordable and market-rate housing, public space, a greenway and the Western City Campus.
The project had already spanned 11 years when the guide was published. Boulder said several more years of construction remained before the overall development would be finished.
The city linked an interactive history and a detailed cost spreadsheet. Those records give residents a way to examine the project’s timeline and spending rather than judge it only from a rendering. The September update does not announce completion of the full site or establish a final all-in cost.
