Not terribly high, it's pretty low density (larger lot single family). Higher than those densities would normally produce. But Stapleton's not adding to bus ridership, not at all.

Besides, I view rail on MLK the same way the IOC views Olympics in Denver: they had their shot. They fought it tooth and nail. (Granted, if they hadn't, we might have Stapleton Airport still.). But that puts them down about Wilcox/Downtown Castle Rock on my list of streetcar corridors.

EDIT: Speer also has political opposition from the DCC. The densities are so much better up around 6th-ish, you can serve Governors Park etc, and still get to Cherry Creek no problem.


Again - we've got to get past the pretty lines on a map transit planning mentality. I'm guilty of it too - on dozens of bar napkins, but that doesn't mean it's correct.
