Welcome to your new 15-minute community—Cherry Creek West.
Imagine a place to live, work, and gather, designed for people first. A vibrant, mixed-use community that celebrates the outdoors and the creek while seamlessly connecting to the existing neighborhood so that everything you need is just a short stroll or bike ride away.
Backed by the placemaking expertise of East West Partners, who brought you the Union Station neighborhood and Riverfront Park, Cherry Creek West builds on everything we love about the existing neighborhood and completes an overall vision we hope you’re as excited about as we are.

The Principles Guiding Our Vision
Designed for People First
From the beginning, we asked ourselves: What are the things that make people’s lives better, healthier, more convenient, and sustainable? With that in mind, we set out to create a 15-minute community, where you can leave your car behind because everything you need is in reach—in essence, walkable. Places to live, work, and spend time, with sprawling green spaces connecting to the creek, the mall, Cherry Creek North, and even downtown via the Cherry Creek bike path. It’s a pedestrian’s paradise that prioritizes people over cars.
Putting the Creek Back in Cherry Creek
The creek is the heart of the neighborhood, and we believe it should be celebrated accordingly. That’s why everything will lead to the creek and back, finally connecting the creek to the neighborhood.
Celebrating the Outdoors
Imagine strolling found pathways as they weave between buildings oriented to maximize the expansive views and the sunlight in between. Plenty of functional outdoor spaces draw employees outside for a working lunch, while providing endless places to wander, recharge, and reconnect.
Centered Around Wellness
We are prioritizing outdoor spaces and healthy buildings that focus on physical, psychological, and social health. Places and activities that promote individual and community wellness, as well as buildings intentionally designed to draw tenants who prioritize healthy lifestyles for their employees.
Where Work Isn't Work
Back to work, but better. We’re approaching work in a more grounded way. This is a place where the line between indoors and outdoors blurs into what we call “mid-doors”. Buildings oriented to maximize views, Colorado skies, and natural light. Thoughtful, efficient, and flexible floor plates. Curated amenities with a focus on wellness, including fresh air inside. Building systems that emphasize both health and energy efficiency. All in a place that inspires your best work.
The Neighborhood’s New Front Yard
Centered around a sprawling, sunny open space perfect for throwing down a blanket or enjoying an outdoor performance, this will be the new front yard of Cherry Creek—a place that belongs to everyone.
Unapologetically Sustainable
We have a unique opportunity to act as a leader in sustainable development. As we envision this community, we remain focused on carbon reduction through alternative materials, efficiency, and offsetting—creating a community that raises the bar for the future.
Neighbors for the Long Term
Cherry Creek West is our community too. The team behind this transformational place lives here. We care deeply about how it feels to be here, as we’ll be here right next to you. And we intend to own these buildings for generations and we want them to stand the test of time.
