BRIGHTON, CO-Denver land developer Craig Carlson is undertaking a 1,400-acre commercial and residential real estate development in the city of Brighton, 20 miles northeast of Denver’s Central Business District.

The Prairie Center development, which will take 10 to 15 years to complete, is carrying a $1.7-billion fully developed value. The project is located at the northwest corner of Interstate 76 and the extension of the E-470 toll road.

Brighton expects to annex the project from Adams County by year’s end. The complex eventually will have as much as nine million sf of commercial space and 3,000 housing units. The city supports Prairie Center because it will provide significant employment opportunities for its 20,000 residents, 69% of whom work outside Brighton.
