Harvest Hills/96 Ave Development

Update 3/28/24: In response to feedback and my concerns regarding the alignment of housing and transit priorities, Administration has postponed the open house (scheduled for April 2) on the Harvest Hills/96 Ave Development.

Additionally, the City may reassess the format for community outreach based on some of the preliminary feedback and observations.

As soon as we know more about the rescheduled open house, I'll share the details with residents.

The site is currently undeveloped grass that was earmarked to be a park n’ ride for the future green line.

The parcel in question is marked with an X.

Why is this being proposed?

Best practice in transit-oriented development is to put people as close to transit as possible, and with the North Pointe park n’ ride already in play, as well as a broader push to better utilize city-owned lands to address the housing crisis, the city is contemplating putting affordable housing here.

What does this mean for the future Green Line Station?

This site was not planned to be a station. The alignment of the future green line runs up Harvest Hills Blvd on the East side of the corridor. The future green line station, as well as the airport connector are both separate from the site and are also on the East side of Harvest Hills Blvd. The parcel is west of Harvest Hills Blvd.

Why is a bus loop contemplated here?

Even if this site remains a parking lot instead of affordable housing, it was always planned to have a bus loop, which would allow access from a variety of bus lines to the future green line and airport connector.

Where can I learn more?

Visit the project website here, and attend the open house on April 2nd to provide your feedback.
