Why aren’t more builders making simple changes, like a house’s orientation, that can cut energy demand by 30%?

Walk through Arvada’s Geos community and you’ll see townhouses and single-family homes lining the streets. Neighbors walk by with dogs or bags of groceries and stop for a minute to exchange pleasantries before carrying on to their respective destinations. Small lots in between each home are full of tall grasses, flowers, and the occasional bird bath.

At first glance, Geos looks like a standard housing development, but there’s a lot more going on below the surface — and right in front of your eyes — than you may think.

Michael Tavel and David Kahn of SUN Studio designed Geos between 2005–2008 and the first home was built in 2016. SUN Studio is an architecture and landscape architecture firm specializing in sustainable urban neighborhood design.

Conceived in 2004 by Michael Tavel, architect and creator of design guidelines for Geos, the first Geos home was built in 2016. Tavel is also one of the founders and principles of SUN Studio, an architecture firm specializing in sustainable urban design.

Geos is advertised as a net-zero energy community, which is probably a phrase you’ve heard bantered about quite a bit. According to the U.S. General Services Administration, net-zero energy means producing as much energy as one consumes. But perhaps Rainer Gerbatsch, a Geos resident, puts it best when he describes net-zero as “striving for a certain level of energy efficiency.”

What is net-zero?

“There are a lot of definitions for net-zero energy,” said Tavel. “It makes it confusing but there are so many ways to define it. In my opinion, the most important measurement of energy efficiency when it comes to homes is how they perform once they are built and lived in.” Tafel stated that many builders use projected energy efficiency models when applying for permits but aren’t actually looking at how the home performs once it’s built.

The homes at GEOS achieve energy efficiency several ways. The first is something seemingly simple that would be easy to overlook — the orientation of the houses. Where the sun is in the Colorado sky varies depending on the season. In the winter it’s in the more southern part of the sky whereas it rises in the east during the summer.

“The Geos homes are stretched out so that the long side is facing north and south and the short sides are facing east and west,” said Tavel. “That means most of the surface area is facing north and south, allowing you to capture more heat in the winter. The east and west sides have less surface area, so in the summer you’ll capture less sunlight.”

According to Tavel, orienting homes this way can reduce energy demand by as much as 30%. In the homes you’ll also find geothermal heating units or mini splits for heating and cooling. Builders utilize materials like three-pane windows — the standard is two — and structural insulated panels so the houses keep warm or cold air, depending on the season, inside, rather than losing it through a drafty window. Naturally this means the houses have very little airflow. To combat this, each home utilizes an Energy Recovery Ventilator, which filters in fresh air and exhausts stale air.

Walkability means energy efficiency

You might look around the community and think to yourself, ‘this feels densely populated.’ There’s a reason for that too.

“The places where carbon dioxide emissions are the lowest per person are the densest cities, like Manhattan or Tokyo,” said Tavel. “The denser that we build, the less energy is consumed, both in heating and cooling buildings and transportation.”

With an increase in demand for housing, and more and more residents asking for green, walkable cities, why aren’t more developers building like this? At the very least, taking passive solar energy into account when laying out homes and neighborhoods could help reduce energy consumption.

“In the last 10 years, fracking has made natural gas very cheap in Colorado,” said Tavel. “And because natural gas is so cheap it’s removed the incentive to build truly energy efficient homes. There’s no incentive for things like passive solar.”

Tavel also notes that there seems to be an issue of government staffing when it comes to those in charge of approving building permits.

“There were a lot of interested, educated staff around 2005 who were supportive,” said Tavel. “And now, everyone’s stretched beyond their capacity. It’s been one of the greatest obstacles and it’s a national problem. Pulling building permits is just a gridlock.”

Perhaps it’s time to start looking beyond incentives, and looking toward what’s going to be better for the long haul.

Here’s what to try instead.

It’s easy to count the ways that Coloradans are spoiled. Access to nature. World-class breweries and distilleries. Farmers markets in the summer that morph into Christmas markets in December. Music. Wildlife. Hot Springs. Unexpected events like zombie crawls, TubaChristmas concerts, turkey trots, and mountain festivals.

And, our salsas. Not all places have what we do. It’s not hard to find great, fresh examples of salsa on your restaurant table while you’re waiting for a meal or as part of the main dish. When I find one that stands out, I want to tell others about it.

My personally curated salsa trio is designed to relieve you from chip-dip boredom. There’s plenty of room to use these to expand the range of other dishes, main courses, and snacks alike. Read on and see.

Avocado jalapeño salsa

Area chef and restaurateur Fausto Felix first became known when he opened The Dugout in Erie followed by Rosa Mexican Kitchen in Thornton and Rosa Cantina in Longmont. With Rumbo 52 on Highway 52 and I-25 in Frederick, he’s converted a space that’s been both an interstate-way stop of a diner and a Pinocchio’s Italian franchise into an exciting, fresh destination for Latin food.

I like lots of things on the menu, but one of Rumbo 52’s salsas caught me off guard. When I ordered the Mama-lona, the avocado jalapeño salsa, I was delighted by a creamy texture with a balanced jalapeño spice, avocado, onion vinegar, and cilantro combined into the texture of a crema. In a world of diced tomato and onion, or fiery blender salsas, it was a refreshing change that can be enjoyed in a lot of ways. In the future, I plan to use it to replace traditional taco or burrito accompaniments but could also try it on a lighter grilled fish.

Rumbo 52

Salsa made with nuts and dates

One of my favorite things about Teocalli Cochina, in the Old Town sections of both Lafayette and Arvada, are the salsas. There’s one that I want to have by the spoonful: the Macha salsa. Made with peanuts, dates, and morita peppers, this salsa hits my sweet spot, my savory spot, and my smoky spot. All at once.

This salsa originally comes from Veracruz, Mexico and is known for being nutty and rich. It reminds me of a mole sauce, which is one of the reasons that I think I like it so much. It can be used in place of a salsa, but it also works with eggs, on sandwiches, and I think I want to try it on a tuna steak. It’s a condiment to get creative with.

TeoCalli

Mushroom and carrot salsa

It’s likely that most Coloradans on the Front Range have had a meal at Three Margaritas. Originally a six-restaurant, single location in Seattle, the Morales family grew it to 15 locations, sold their chain, and moved to Colorado where they now have 13 restaurants in the Centennial State as well as in Nebraska and Missouri. Some of these restaurants are family owned, others are partnerships with employees.

One item on the menu is a delicious and savory fungi-based salsa called Salsa de Hongos. Mushrooms, carrots, cilantro, and jalapeño are marinated in lime juice for a chewier, toothier salsa that’s great for eggs, tacos, a different take on bruschetta, a hearty fish, and could even find its way onto the table for a steak dinner. Although Three Margaritas has to standardize their ingredient list, there’s no reason that home cooks can’t make variations with wild mushrooms and see how that stretches the flavor profile even further.

Flat Space at Dairy Arts Center

Fans of visual arts know that one of the best places in Boulder to stop is the Dairy Center for the Arts – with a rotating schedule of local artists showcasing a variety of mediums.

According to the website’s statement, “Flat Space invites us to reconsider the familiar as he navigates the interplay between simplicity and complexity in his interpretations of this natural landmark.” Visit TheDairy.org for more information.

The Burroughs at Nissi’s

This self-proclaimed “sweaty soul music” outfit from Fort Collins has firmly placed itself atop the regional map when it comes to delivering a high-energy, well-choreographed and polished product that provides unshakeable grooves, incredible horns and a lasting impression for any audience lucky enough to catch the show. Their latest recording, Honey Imastar is a concept album telling the story of an intergalactic traveler who lands on Earth and sets out to learn what it is to be human — which apparently requires a smorgasbord of trip-hop, soul, R&B, pop and funk tunes as key ingredients. Catch them live at Nissis in Lafayette on Nov. 24 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets start at $20, visit Nissis.com for more information

Aparna Nancherla at Comedy Works

Comedian Aparna Nancherla has plenty to say. The author-turned stand-up has written for Late Night with Seth Meyers and Totally Biased With W. Kamau Bell, half-hour specials on both Netflix and Comedy Central, and just published her first book, Unreliable Narrator: Me, Myself and Imposter Syndrome in late September — a hilarious collection of personal essays that’s at once deeply introspective and totally relatable to anyone who’s ever questioned themselves in their pursuits. See her perform live at Comedy Works in Downtown Denver at one of three shows Oct. 20-21. Tickets start at $30, visit ComedyWorks.com for more information. 

Cinderella at Arvada Center

For a slightly different family-friendly production, check out the Arvada Center’s upcoming musical Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella, plaing Nov. 24 through Dec. 31. You know the story —  a young woman is forced to be a servant to her evil stepmother and stepsisters. When a little magic and a Fairy Godmother come into her life, Cinderella proves that any dream can come true. This will be a stylish, contemporary take on the beloved story, and you can expect plenty of laughs, brilliant music and fabulous costumes. Tickets range from $19 to $38 at ArvadaCenter.org.

Making a Mountain at Dairy Center for the Arts

Since mid-July, visitors to the Dairy Center for the Arts visual galleries have been sewing a mountain. Making a Mountain is an interactive installation which asked the community to come together to sew while sharing stories and building out a large-scale installation made from pink and orange tulle. The tulle comes together, eventually forming the mountain – and will stay up through September 9. The artist, Ana María Hernando, uses femininity and empathy to make the invisible visible and to question our own preconceptions of worth and value. Admission to the galleries at the Dairy Center is free. 2590 Walnut Street, Boulder. Visit thedairy.org for more info.

Janelle Monáe at Red Rocks

In 2010 Janelle Monáe burst into American consciousness with her first studio album, The ArchAndroid (Bad Boy Records). Thanks to her appearance on fun.’s hit single, “We Are Young” in 2011, which was certified diamond of the RIAA, she was able to carve out a space as a household name and parlay that into incredible follow-up releases, The Electric Lady (Bad Boy Records/Atlantic, 2013) and Dirty Computer (Boy Records/Atlantic, 2018) — the latter of which earned her a Grammy Nomination for Album of the Year. Now touring on her 2023 outing, The Age of Pleasure (Atlantic), a genius collection of slick, soulful pop/reggae tunes, Monáe comes to Red Rocks on Sept. 7. Tickets are $50+, visit RedRocksOnline.com for more info.

There will also be a talkback with the cast and crew following the Saturday, Sept. 16 performance. At the Carsen Theater at the Dairy Center for the Arts, 2590 Walnut Street, Boulder.

Director Munam Goodwin brings this to life on the Mary Miller Theater stage. Tickets start at $25. Visit TCLStage.org for more info.

Nuns of Brixton/Reptiles and Samurai at the Oriental Theater

Not everyone wants to spend $50,000 on their wedding. From preferring to spend money on their first home or a fun honeymoon, couples have many reasons to throw a microwedding or a wedding that costs less than $20,000.

Some cut down costs by throwing weddings in parks or in backyards. Others cut costs by buying a used dress or making DIY decor. Here is how the budgeters of Boulder County made their dream microweddings happen.

Saving for the honeymoon

Shannon Del Prince used Facebook groups to find cheap deals on used wedding items and to connect with affordable vendors for her wedding.

“Those groups are a godsend for planning weddings, if you’re open to using repurposed things,” Del Prince said.

The couple was more interested in spending money on their honeymoon. In lieu of wedding gifts they asked for travel funds.

“We were really trying to go all out with the honeymoon,” Del Prince said. “We really wanted to travel a bit. We didn’t really see any point in spending $20,000 on one day. I mean it was one of the best days of my life, but I didn’t have to spend a ton of money to do that, so that was really cool.”

Mountain View Wedding in a Free People Dress

Elizabeth O’Neill got married at the wood pavilion by a pond with a Mt. Elbert view at the National Fish Hatchery in Leadville. The couple rented the pavilion for a few hundred dollars. Elizabeth saved wedding dress costs by wearing a Free People dress that cost hundreds instead of thousands. Her husband wore vintage, consigned mountain-style clothes. Friends kindly donated their services from photography, to DJing, to tending the fire pits. A BBQ food truck provided meals and cakes were made by a home-based baker.

“I just don’t believe in spending heaps of money on a wedding, primarily because that’s not what it was about for either of us,” O’Neill said. “And if you can have an absolutely beautiful, sweet, memorable, gorgeous wedding for under $5k, why not go that route?”

Personalized Over Trendy Weddings

Alyson Miller-Greenfield decided fairly early on that she and her husband wanted a more intimate gathering, one that would not break the bank.

“We are quickly approaching our 30th anniversary, and I still look back on our wedding day as magical – a peak experience that has resonated over the decades,” Miller-Greenfield said.

The invitation list was limited to 50, composed of only closest friends and family.

“This meant that many, many well-wishers were not included,” Miller-Greenfield said. “But we had to be honest with ourselves that had we invited all the ‘next-level’ friends and business associates the list would swell to over 200. Simply put, we didn’t have the budget to entertain that many people ‘in style.’ ”

 They avoided trends and custom accouterments. They found a bargain dress and designed the invitation themselves, which were produced by a non-specialty printer.

“Buying a designer, over-the-top, specially-made gown was just not a priority for me,” Miller-Greenfield said.

The couple opted for the wedding venue to be at an Italian restaurant designed like a villa located in a nature preserve. They decided to do a buffet, which cut down costs and reserved a date outside of the prime times of Friday or Saturday. They let friends and family help. The couple allowed friends to help out with videotaping the ceremony and flower arrangement.

“In sum, it’s not hard even today to have a personalized, memorable and affordable wedding,” Miller-Greenfield said. “When I saw a post the other day asking what readers would change their wedding, in all caps I was able to comment:  ‘NOT A THING!’ ”

Low-key wedding after an unexpected cancellation

Theresa Haley’s wedding was canceled last-minute because the couple officiating had a huge fight and split up. With short notice they had a judge officiate instead, pushing the wedding back a week. They wore street clothes with friends and family witnessing and celebrating at a reception hosted at the groom’s parents house.

“Very low-key and low-stress,” Haley said. “I don’t regret anything about it. We’ve been married 42 years this month, so none of it affected the ultimate outcome.”

Microwedding in the park

Randi Eckmann helped plan a microwedding for a friend. The wedding cost under $800 to execute.  Held at Majestic Park in Arvada, most local parks are free or cost a low price for weddings and can be used on a first come first serve basis unless you want to book a picnic area. Eckmann picked up simple decorations at Hobby Lobby for under $100 including the arch, picked up a simple cake from Walmart for $25, and served drinks and small cold appetizers from King Soopers. The wedding dress was purchased from Shein.

National Park Wedding

Debra Sherrill and her husband both wore shorts and hiking boots to their wedding. They only needed to pay for their marriage license, the cabin for the weekend and a packed picnic lunch. They got married at Bridal Veil Falls in Rocky Mountain National Park. There were no witnesses, no officiants, only a couple of chipmunks attended the ceremony.

The important decisions

When Cairn Yakey was planning a wedding the couple asked themselves “how important is X to us?” This worked for decisions around alcohol. They saved money on not having an open bar, but a cash bar.

“We were hoping for a drinking in moderation situation, and we didn’t value alcohol enough to pay an extra almost $1,000,” Yakey said. “I would say we tried to spend money on what felt important to us, like a quality photographer.”

Flash mob wedding

Taylor Glover had a flash wedding at Chautauqua Park. With no flowers, no DJ, no wedding party the wedding was completely free.

“My wedding was complicated because of immigration,” Glover said. “I knew he would come 25 days before he arrived, then at that point we had 90 days to get married and do paperwork, so we got married ten days after he arrived in the USA. Planning for this was impossible, so we posted our time and place online and said whoever could come on short notice would be allowed.”

After the 15-minute ceremony, the couple and their eight guests had a picnic reception in a cemetery, which was also free.

Courthouse wedding

Mercedes Gates and her husband were primary caretakers for her grandmother when she died unexpectedly. This left them with 60 days to vacate her home and find a house to purchase. During the home buying process her husband dropped the bombshell that he was planning on proposing. The couple decided to put money into a down payment instead of a wedding and got married at the county clerk’s office.

“We decided that we would rather spend the money on taking our first vacation together once everything had settled, than planning an actual wedding with our family and friends,” Gates said. “So that’s exactly what we did. I planned a trip for my husband to see the ocean for the first time at a place very special to my family in Florida, and it was by far better than any wedding day we could’ve ever imagined.”

DIY wedding dress

Monique Gaspard and her ex husband spent about $600 on their wedding. They rented a lake home and split the price of the six-day rental with the wedding party. The wedding dress was a happy accident given to her by a friend. Gaspard transformed the dress into her dream dress with supplies from Hobby Lobby. She used the Hobby Lobby app to search for sales of supplies.

“I saw it as a blank canvas honestly,” Gaspard said. “I transformed that dress into the dress of my dreams.

Gaspard told her wedding party to choose any dress but in a certain color.

“My maids were all beautiful women who had extremely different body types,” Gaspard said. “They all had a hard time, and I finally told them to find whatever you like as long as you feel beautiful I’m happy.”

Backyard wedding

Hali Trepke got married during the pandemic. Both she and her husband are introverts and don’t like being the center of attention. With a crowd with fewer than 40 people, Trepke’s family put everything together from the food, to the makeup to the bouquet.

Cheap hotel offerings

Heather Greene is a sales manager at the Hyatt Place, Boulder at Depot Square space, which offers spaces for wedding welcome dinners, brunches, ready rooms for the bridal party, and block room pricing. Wedding parties headed to a microwedding often use the ready rooms at the hotel.

“I know a lot of the people who utilize those,” Green said. “They’ll get dressed and do hair and makeup and go where they’re going to go to the actual ceremony.  When you’re doing a wedding like that you don’t often have places to get ready.”

Farm weddings

Eric Rooney of Half Moon Farms encourages people to consider local farm options when planning weddings. Half Moon farms offers financially approachable flowers, farm-table food opportunities, and an intimate wedding space in nature. They even allow people to work off some of the cost of the wedding by working for them.

“We need the help, right, so we’re going to hire the help somehow,” Rooney said. “So if you can show up and give us 20 hours of work for your celebration or event, then some people can do that because it’s more financially approachable.”

Bridal parties can snip from the many flowers growing at the farm and create their own bouquets and boutonniéres.

“I fell in love out here,” Rooney said. “It’s a wedding everyday. It’s a micro everything everyday.”

The farm, which is located a backyard, has had microweddings and works with the neighborhood with parking, sometimes having events with up to 80 attendees.

“These microweddings, the reason they are micro most of the time is because people want to be more intentional about everything, and part of that smaller idea is to be intentional with that space,” Rooney said. “I think when we celebrate love and offer a space that encapsulates this reciprocity of love, like me showing up everyday with my hands and working. People feel that, and they come into the space and they fall in love. They fall in love with this idea of celebrating love and it becomes invigorating.”

Natural weddings can seem financially unapproachable because venues like the Denver Botanical Gardens charge large fees for renting the event spaces.

“Nature is a witness to every single part of us because we are nature,” Rooney said lovingly about his farm. “This space in particular is a whirlwind of romance because nature is love and falling in love is nature. It’s emotional and physical here in this space to be able to offer a microwedding because it’s approachable financially. I pay the mortgage, but at the end of the day my hussle isn’t to capitalize off of my ideas. My hustle is to share my ideas and get the love flowing.”

Tank and the Bangas at Bluebird Theater

There is something so absolutely riveting about watching Tarriona “Tank” Ball perform with her endlessly talented band — it leapt off the literal desk when they blew up thanks to their NPR Tiny Desk Concert performance (and eventual win) in 2017. Since then, the funky/neo-soul/spoken word/hip-hop outfit garnered a Grammy nom for best new artist in 2019 and released two studio albums, Green Ballon (2019, Verve Forecast Records) and last year’s Red Balloon (Verve Forecast Records), which is the album they’re touring on. This brings their studio output to three albums total, including their debut Think Tank (2013, Feedbands Records), and one thing remains indelibly clear throughout all of them — this band is lights-out incredible. Catch them March 22 at the Bluebird Theater in Denver or Washington’s in Fort Collins on March 25. Visit www.TankAndTheBangas.com for more information.

Something Rotten at BDT Stage

If you’re a fan of The Bard then you’ll want to check out BDT Stage’s production of the Tony Award-winning Something Rotten. The show, set in the 1590s, is about two brothers – Nigel and Nick Bottom – who are desperate to write a hit play. However, they feel stuck in the shadow of one William Shakespeare and a local soothsayer tells them that their future is not in plays, but in musicals. So the pair set off to write the world’s first musical. A high-energy, dance-filled extravaganza, Something Rotten is a fabulous choice for BDT Stage’s final season. Now playing through April 21. Tickets range from $70 to $75 and are available at www.bdtstage.com or 303.449.6000.

The Book Club Play at Arvada Center for the Arts

While the Arvada Center for the Arts and Humanities is known for fabulously staged large musicals, it also has a smaller Black Box theater offering compelling smaller shows, perfect for those who like more intimate productions. Running through May 18 is The Book Club Play by Karen Zacarías. It’s the story of a documentary filmmaker who turns his lens on a long-standing book club. The attention forces the group dynamics to take a hilarious turn, and the chaos ensues – filled with enough literary references to please any bibliophile. Tickets start at $45 and are available at www.arvadacenter.org or 720.898.7200.

Jerrie Hurd: Beyond the Male Gaze at Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art

Photographer Jerrie Hurd is fascinated in the human form – yet her latest exhibition specializes in figurative photography that avoids objectification. The exhibit, called Jerrie Hurd: Beyond the Male Gaze, features a variety of photographs, often underwater, as Hurd is interested in how water creates an ethereal quality and creates artistic challenges for her to overcome. The title of the exhibit refers to the phrase which is applied to sexualization of people, but this photography exhibit is designed to showcase the beauty in the human form with the artistic challenge of being under water. Running at the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art through May 26. Admission to the museum is only $2. Get more info at www.bmoca.org.

Alonzo Bodden with special guest Kevin Fitzgerald at Nissi’s

When it comes to delivering the funny, you’re gonna be hard-pressed to find a better bill in all of the Centennial State in the month of April than these two eminent professionals as Comedy Works presents Alonzo Bodden with Kevin Fitzgerald opening. Bodden broke into national consciousness with his win on the third season of Last Comic Standing, thanks to his effortless delivery and smooth observational takes. Meanwhile, local veterinarian and long-time comedic darling Dr. Kevin Fitzgerald is the funniest dog-doctor on Earth as well as one of the kindest humans you’ll ever meet. Should make for a side-splitting evening, no doubt. April 1 at Nissis in Lafayette, tickets are $27+, visit www.Nissis.com for more information.

Fan Mail 2.0 at Dairy Center for the Arts

Fan Mail 2.0 is a free art exhibit showcasing the internet’s ability to connect artists and expose meaningful connections in a new way. Created by Hyperlink – an artist collective dedicated to alternative artistic experiences – it asked the collective members to select an artist that inspires them and to show their work in the context of our community. Ten artists are featured, all individually selected by the Hyperlink collective, with a wide range of mediums from pottery and sculpture to mixed media, painting and photography. Visit the Dairy Center for the Arts to enjoy this free public exhibit, which is open through April 1. Visit www.TheDairy.org for more info.

Christian McBride at Boulder Theater

With eight Grammy awards in his display case, Christian McBride has firmly cemented himself on the Mount Rushmore of jazz bassists, thanks to his peerless discography and his tireless work as Artistic Director of the historic Newport Jazz Festival, New Jersey Performing Arts center (NJPAC), the TD James Moody Jazz Festival, and the National Jazz Museum in Harlem, as well as Jazz Aspen Snowmass Summer Sessions. Still touring on his 2018 outing — Christian McBride’s New Jawn, a tight, soulful, funky 9-track exploration of contemporary jazz with a decidedly Philly edge — the maestro breezes through the Boulder Theater on Feb. 26. Tickets start at $29.50, check out www.BoulderTheater.com for more information.

Ms. Holmes and Ms. Watson at Dairy Center for the Arts

If you’ve ever been Sherlocked, then the Butterfly Effect Theatre of Colorado (BETC) has just the show for you. Ms. Holmes and Ms. Watson by Kate Hamill is a fast-paced, farcical reboot of the famous detective and her crime-solving partner. With tons of humor thrown in, the pair of detectives take the audience through a fascinating journey filled with plenty of villains, scandals and more. This one is playing through Feb. 25 at the Grace Gamm Theatre in the Dairy Center for the Arts. Tickets range from $22.50 to $50 and are available at thedairy.org or by calling 303.351.2382.

 Joysome at Dairy Center for the Arts

Denver’s Month of Photography is a biennial festival celebrating photography with exhibits and events throughout the Denver/Boulder region taking place in March of 2023. As part of this festival, the Dairy Center for the Arts is offering Joysome – a packed exhibition featuring 50 images culled from hundreds of submissions. The topic of the call for photography was the theme of joy – and Joysome showcases the selected images printed on flags and exhibited throughout the Dairy Arts Center and East Window Art Gallery in Boulder. Visit thedairy.org for more information.

Fiddler on the Roof at Buell Theatre

One of the most beloved musicals of all time visits Denver in a new national touring production of Fiddler on the Roof. The original Broadway production won 10 Tony Awards, including one for being the longest-running Broadway musical. Now, whether you’re a long-time fan, or if you’ve never had the chance to catch this one – Denver Center Attractions has your chance from March 14 through 19 at the Buell Theatre. Tevya’s journey as he deals with the trials and tribulations of raising his daughters in a changing world features such memorable songs as “Tradition,” “If I Were a Rich Man” and “Sunrise, Sunset” among so many others. $35 to $115 at denvercenter.org or 303.893.4100.

Gary Gulman at Dairy Center for the Arts

After more than 25 years honing his craft, it’s no wonder Gary Gulman has become a nearly household name among standup comedy fans. He was a finalist on the second and third seasons of Last Comic Standing, has made a complete circuit of all the late night talk shows, and has a wildly acclaimed HBO special called The Great Depresh that was released in 2019 — and dives deeply into his own battles with depression, anxiety and treatment. He’s eminently relatable and lights-out funny. Catch him at one of two shows at the Dairy Center for the Arts in Boulder on March 4 at 7 and 9 pm. Tickets start at $35, visit TheDairy.org for more information.

Art + Science at Arvada Center

The art of science is explored through visual mediums in the Arvada Center’s current exhibition titled Art + Science. Fourteen contemporary artists use data, research, and scientific concepts to inform and create their works – portraying both the scientific discovery and the artist’s understanding and experiences. From powerful sculpture to thought-provoking photography and painting, there are many opportunities for discussion and appreciation in this exhibition running through March 26. Admission is free, visit www.arvadacenter.org for more information.

CHOCOLATE DELIGHT: A surprising indulgence, chocolate and red wine combine to make this a delightful treat. Late harvest Zinfandel sourced from sun-filled vineyards leads to a higher alcohol content in the dessert styled wine.

SAUVIGNON BLANC: Stainless steel fermentation makes this Sauvignon Blanc bright and refreshing. Aromas of tropical fruit and melons are met with flavors of lemon zest and passion fruit flavors. The natural acidity leads into a nice crisp finish.

GRANDVIEW RESERVE: This is a wine that embodies the texture and finesse that encompass the fine art of wine blending. The deep garnet color is met with aromas of dark cherry, plum and cocoa with a hint of toasted oak. The mouth feel is silky-smooth with soft, round tannins accented by a lasting vanilla finish.

Marc Maron at Boulder Theater

Comedian Marc Maron has appeared on Late Night with Conan O’Brien more than 40 times, making him the undisputed champion of all stand up comedians in terms of his prolificness. The New-Jersey-bred standup’s anxiety-ridden takes are spit-the-milk-out-of-your-mouth funny, and his role as Sam Sylvia, the creator and director of the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling on the Netflix series GLOW, was legendarily brilliant. Since 2009, his podcast has evolved into a juggernaut on its own — WTF with Marc Maron now eclipses 6 million downloads a month, and has featured such guests as Robin Williams, President Obama, Keith Richards, Peter Dinklage, and hundreds more. Catch him on his “This May Be The Last Time” tour at the Boulder Theater on Sept. 22. Doors open at 7 p.m., tickets are $49.50 at BoulderTheater.com

Erin Hyunhee Kang at BMOCA

Erin Hyunhee Kang is a Korean American who moved to the United States at the age of 15. As a painter, graphic artist and illustrator, Kang’s visual art is driven by her own observations of diaspora as a metaphor for her life and identity. The work explores a middle ground between Eastern and Western values, often resulting in surreal, fragmented landscapes that are at once both chaotic and calming. Her latest exhibition, A Home In Between, opens at the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art Sept. 29 and runs through Jan. 22, 2023. Admission to the museum is only $2, Saturday admission is always free. 1750 13th Street, Boulder. 303.443.2122.

The Children at the Dairy Center for the Arts

Butterfly Effect Theatre of Colorado (formerly Boulder Ensemble Theatre Company) has always been on the forefront of compelling and engaging new works. This month, check out their production of The Children, a poignant comedic play that tells the story of two retired nuclear scientists who are living in a remote cottage by the sea, watching the world around them crumble. When an old friend arrives, the three embark on a journey to answer the timely question: what do we owe to future generations? This very timely production runs from Sept. 15 through Oct. 8 at the Dairy Center for the Arts in Boulder. Tickets range from $21 to $51 and are available at thedairy.org or 303.440.7826.

Into the Woods at Arvada Center for the Arts

Stephen Sondheim, Broadway and musical theater legend, may have recently passed away, but his legacy lives on in theaters across the country, from the smallest houses to some of the largest professional companies. The Arvada Center for the Arts is proudly offering one of Sondheim’s most beloved works – Into the Woods, now playing through Oct. 9, 2022. Into the Woods explores the real lives of well-known fairy tale characters and discusses the consequences of the choices people make. Tickets start at $53 at arvadacenter.org or 720.898.7200.

Matisyahu at the Gothic Theatre

“I get to reach out and impact someone else’s life and they do the same,” said Matisyahu in our interview with him back in 2011. “It’s like you are doing something important and you reach out through the music. I try to tell a story and I hope that people get something out of it. And everyone gets something different out of it. Music means something different to everyone and you just hope you are giving them something.” Touring on his eponymous 2022 release (Fallen Sparks Records), his uplifting, spiritually influenced Jewish perspective brings light and love with every performance. Catch him live at the Gothic Theatre in Englewood on Oct. 15 at 7 p.m. Tickets are $29.50+, GothicTheatre.com for more information.

Of Mice and Men at Coal Creek Theater

As the end of October approaches, Coal Creek Theater of Louisville is preparing a return to the classics with John Steinbeck’s beloved story of friendship based during the Great Depression – Of Mice and Men. The original version was produced in 1937 but remains just as relevant and moving today as it was then. If you’ve never seen a live production of this profound work, Coal Creek Theater’s production is an excellent chance to catch it in a lovely and intimate space – the Louisville Center for the Arts. Of Mice and Men opens Oct. 28. 801; tickets will be available at cctlouisville.org.

Even kids know that holes are supposed to be in the donut, not in the donut shop. But since a car accident late last year caused structural damage to Winchell’s Longmont location, there has been a massive, donut-shaped hole in the lives of Boulder County residents.

As the repairs continue, we’ve got a host of other delicious, unique options to fill your craving. Here are our recommendations for the best donuts in the area, featuring some new spots and some unexpected ones.

Blackbelly
1606 Conestoga St., Boulder CO
blackbelly.com

In the early morning hours, breakfast seekers know Blackbelly for their burritos or, maybe smothered tater tots. But we’re inviting you not to skip the donuts when they have them. They’re prepared in house, individually crafted, light and yeasted, and, because of the restaurant’s rotating recipe, they’re filled with something more than just the usual grape jelly and feature a variety of toppings.

Landline Doughnuts
321 Main St., Longmont CO
landlinedoughnuts.com

Throughout last year, the only way to get one of Landline’s potato doughnuts was at a farmer’s market or pop up booth. Now they’re on Main Street in Old Town Longmont and customers love the cakes, which include mashed potatoes as a prime ingredient and are made from the owners’ 1930s family recipe. The potato makes them delicious and moist. They’re also smaller and prettier than donuts we’ve had from other spots.

Nok’s Donuts
400 W. South Boulder Rd., Suite 2300, Lafayette CO
facebook.com/NoksDonuts

Nok’s creative ingredient combinations make it a unique choice for those seeking something sweet. Think rich chocolate, matcha with coconut, and creative holiday icings. But as good as these donuts taste, gentler ingredients and packaging make their texture something special as well. Ingredients are fresh and non-gmo. They also use packaging that breaks down naturally in a way that doesn’t contribute stress to the environment. 

Basta
3601 Arapahoe Ave., Boulder CO
bastaboulder.com

Kelly Whitaker opened Basta in 2010 and while we love the restaurant for a lot of reasons, the doughnuts keep us coming back. Served fresh from the fryer, they’re smooth and hot, silky and feature ricotta. At Basta, there’s no need to save dessert until the end. We like to order them first with a cocktail or a pre-meal drink that can hold up to a sugar hit. 

Habit Donut Dispensary
1553 Platte St., Denver CO
habitdoughnuts.com

As if donuts aren’t habit forming all by themselves, this shop makes them even more addicting. Glazed donuts have a malted milk glaze, and a rainbow sprinkled donut adds chocolate ganache for extra panache. One of the most interesting options on the menu has a gorgonzola cheesecake filling. 

It’s absolutely worth the trip to Denver. Or, if you’re already around the city, consider making a detour. Pair your cake with coffee and tea or craft beer and seltzers to inject a little boozy fun to your trip. 

OMG Donuts
7355 Ralston Rd., Arvada CO
omgdonutsarvada.com

Bright, colorful, friendly, and welcoming, these words don’t just apply to the donuts, but also the staff.  OMG has reliable, decadent donut flavors like red velvet or double chocolate. They’ll also cover their donuts in cereal or put a dozen in a box for you to elevate a special occasion, work party or any other function you want to make an impression on.

Dorothy’s Dictionary and Amelia’s Big Idea at Butterfly Effect Theatre Company

Leave it to Boulder’s own Butterfly Effect Theatre Company to deliver a truly unique and creative way to bring live theater directly to you. With dates all summer long, the BETC Theatre Truck is hitting the streets with free outdoor shows for families to enjoy. Grab a picnic basket, a blanket or chair and join your friends as the Theatre Truck brings you one of two family-friendly productions. Check out Dorothy’s Dictionary by E.M. Lewis about a high school student who meets a book-lover who’s losing her eyesight. Or catch Amelia’s Big Idea, a new musical created by Heather Beasley, Richie Cannaday and Edie Carey. It is the story of 10-year-old Amelia who wants to build a dog park in her town. With performances through Aug. 7, the truck is touring all over Boulder, Longmont, Louisville, Erie and more. Visit www.betc.org for locations and details on these free productions.

Hair at Miners Alley Playhouse

Have you checked out Miners Alley Playhouse lately? Make the drive to Golden to catch their current production of the classic American tribal love rock musical Hair. This ever-popular musical celebrates the music of the 1960s – with all the long-hair, bell-bottomed, beaded, fringed details to go along with it. All your favorite hits are included, from Age of Aquarius to Good Morning, Starshine, and Let the Sun Shine. Hair remains a powerful story exploring the ideas of identity, community, global responsibility, and peace. Aug. 5–Oct. 2. Tickets range from $42 to $51 at 1224 Washington Ave, Golden. 303.935.3044. MinersAlley.com.

Lafayette Peach Festival

There are a few things Colorado delivers better than any other state in the union. Green Chile is one of those things. Skiing. Number of Subarus per capita. And yes, peaches. Take a back seat, Georgia, you’ve got nothing on the magic that comes out of Palisade on the good crop years — which, given the weirdness in climate change, is admittedly a crap shoot lately. This year’s crop looks good and that means the 23rd Annual Lafayette Peach Festival will be in top form as the truckloads make their way into this annual celebration of Colorado’s most precious fruit.

Face Vocal Band at Nissi’s

True a capella fans are in unanimity when it comes to FACE — Colorado’s enduring, most endearing all-vocal rock band.

And now that Nissi’s has reopened in its new location after the COVID-shuttering it suffered in 2020, there’s more than ample reason to celebrate.

The Nurses Week celebration includes food and drink discounts for nurses and tapping of beer benefitting the Colorado Nurses Foundation

ARVADA, Colo. (April 28, 2022)- LUKI Brewery is proud to celebrate Nurses Week with a benefit beer, as well as food and drink discounts for nurses Friday, May 6 through Thursday, May 12. To kick off the celebration, LUKI will debut Colorado Lamplighter, a 5.2% Fruited Session IPA which taps at 12 p.m. on May 6. Additions of Nelson Sauvin hops, Strawberry and Raspberry puree leaves a crisp, fruity finish to this highly approachable and subtly pink beer. $1 of every Colorado Lamplighter pint sold will be donated to the Colorado Nurses Foundation, an organization dedicated to advancing nursing in Colorado through education, advocacy, and recognition.

Press Releases are provided to Yellow Scene. In an effort to keep our community informed, we publish some press releases in whole.

The Arvada-based brewery’s Nurses Week recognition hits a personal note for LUKI Brewery Co-Owner Cammy Smith. LUKI has employed individuals in nursing school and Smith herself is the director of clinical services at the Colorado Visiting Nurse Association.

“This has been a rough few years for healthcare in general, but nurses are leaving the industry in large numbers because they are feeling overworked and burned out,” says Smith. “Nurses are an extremely important part of our healthcare systems. We need to protect, support, and recognize nurses to prevent losing more, and to continue to encourage more to join the profession.” 

In addition to the benefit beer, LUKI brewery will also be offering 20% off beer tabs with a Nursing I.D. during Nurses Week and have partnered with the following food trucks who will be on-site offering discounts for nurses.

  • May 6: Muy Loco Tacos
  • May 7: Big Bear Cheesesteaks
  • May 8: Kolache House Bakery
  • May 10: Saucy Chops
  • May 13: Biker Jim’s

“LUKI supports areas of healthcare including the nursing profession, mental health, and serious illness awareness,” says Smith. “I am glad that as an owner of, I have the unique opportunity to use craft beer as a way to allow the general public to help support nursing through something as simple and enjoyable as purchasing a beer.”

Al Di Meola at Boulder Theater

We last chatted with jazz guitarist Al Di Meola just a few months before COVID-19 broke out. The Jersey City-bred musician broke onto the scene when Chick Corea tapped the 19-year-old for his Return To Forever jazz fusion outfit in 1974 — and his comet lit up the charts from there on out. More than 30 albums, including multiple gold certifications, a Grammy Award, and induction into the International Guitar Hall of Fame are just some of his career highlights – yet the process was always a struggle for him. “Writing in itself can be very frustrating,” he said in our Sep. 2019 interview. “Soul searching and trying not to repeat yourself — and then add on top of that, if other sections of your life aren’t going well, it’s just difficult to focus. But I’ve done it and I’ve done it in such a way over the years where I’m actually happy with my end results.” And you will be too, when you catch him live at the Boulder Theater, March 29 at 8pm. Tickets are $35+, bouldertheater.com for more information.

Animal Farm at the Arvada Center

As an allegorical play, you don’t get much more poignant than Animal Farm based on the 1945 book by George Orwell. It tells the story of a group of farm animals who rebel against their human farmer, hoping to forge a society in which everyone can be free, happy, and equal. Of course, it does not go as planned, the rebellion is betrayed, and harsh lessons are learned. The Arvada Center presents a new take on this classic literature, adapted for the stage by Director Jessica Robblee. This timeless fable of power and corruption reveals sharp insights and relevant discussions for today’s society. Playing through May 21. Tickets start at $45 at the Arvada Center, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd, Arvada. 720.898.7200 or online at arvadacenter.org.

John Mulaney at Red Rocks

Fresh on the heels of his fifth hosting gig on Saturday Night Live, stand up comedian John Mulaney is on the road again, landing at Red Rocks in April for a one-night, 2-show stand celebrating his “From Scratch” tour. Mulaney wrote for SNL from 2009–2012, and has since delivered a moonshot standup career thanks to his affable personality, peerless timing and genius approach to storytelling. Catch either of his shows on April 17 at 3 or 7pm. Tickets start at $120 and are available at redrocksonline.com.

Choir Boy at the Denver Performing Arts Complex

Expanding on its reputation for compelling, new works, The Denver Center for the Theatre Company offers Choir Boy by Oscar-winning screenwriter Tarell Alvin McCraney. Choir Boy is a coming-of-age musical drama with a compelling story illuminating the chaotic truth behind navigating masculinity, tradition and self-discovery on the path to adulthood – through uplifting music and electrifying dance routines. This exciting new work was the Broadway debut of the screenwriter, and is directed by Jamil Jude, Artistic Director at Kenny Leon’s True Colors Theatre in Atlanta, GA. Tickets range from $30 to $71 at Denver Center for the Performing Arts, 1101 13th Street, Denver. April 22 through May 29. 303.893.4100 or www.denvercenter.org.

St. Paul and the Broken Bones at Mission Ballroom 

We last chatted with Paul Janeway when the St. Paul and the Broken Bones frontman sat down for a chat in Sep. 2018. The Alabama-bred singer displayed an unexpected dichotomy — a really religious, southern white man with a very strong progressive bent. “Why is social justice and human rights such a terrifying thing (to Conservatives)? I don’t know where that narrative came from,” he said. The other thing that stands out is his unbelievable vocal prowess, which Rolling Stones icon Keith Richards once compared favorably to Otis Redding. Catch the band on their Alien Coast Tour at the Mission Ballroom in Denver on April 28 at 7:30pm. Tickets are $37.50+, visit missionballroom.com for more information.

Murder on the Orient Express at Candlelight Dinner Playhouse

All aboard for mystery and thrills as Broadway favorite Ken Ludwig adapts Agatha Christie’s classic Murder on the Orient Express. This exciting adaptation is the classic story of the murder aboard a luxury train. When one passenger doesn’t survive the night, the surviving passengers and detective Hercule Poirot work to identify the murderer – or become the next victim. Playing April 28–June 26, tickets range from $29 to $66 at Candlelight Dinner Playhouse, 4747 Marketplace Drive. 970.744.3747 or online at www.coloradocandlelight.com.

Prospect New Town, Longmont

New Urbanism,” much like art movements or political philosophies with hybrid names — Postmodernism or Neoconservativism, Classical Realism or ProtoFascism —is a compound “ism” that would likely lead to blank stares if you dropped it matter-of-factly in casual conversation. But just like those other movements, New Urbanism’s main conceit is easily distilled: Walk more.

The Front Range’s own Prospect New Town is a prime example of a New Urbanist community. Founded in the mid 1990s, New Town is defined by walkable and tree-lined streets, a variety of eco-friendly housing possibilities, and open spaces that encourage an uncommon camaraderie between neighbors.
Having everything in walking distance ( town center is never more than a five minute walk away ), means that you never need to drive anywhere. And as you amble, stroll or mosey down Prospect New Town’s tree-lined lanes, you’ll always have views of the mountains.

Prospect’s houses are getting ever greener, with solar and wind power being common, and features like radiant heat flooring gaining in popularity. Among other environmental policies codified by the neighborhood limit the kinds of plants that can be used in gardens and yards, with indigenous vegetation requiring minimal water.
Linda Keseric of Prospect New Town said that the neighborhood is “most famous for our Prospect Sound Bites”— a weekly summer event in which 10 to 12 food trucks (from pizza, to Mexican, to BBQ to Asian fusion) and local bands gather every Monday.

Geos Neighborhood, Arvada

Photo by Chris Bjork

Just how energy-efficient can a neighborhood be? This was the question that Norbert Klebl asked himself when he conceived of the Geos Neighborhood in Arvada. Producing a quarter or half of a housing development’s energy through solar wasn’t enough in his eyes. Geos’ houses were designed such there would be net zero energy usage. But between city planning that optimizes the sun received by each individual house’s solar panels from season to season, and structures that make geothermal heating and cooling highly affordable, Geos is exceeding even that. “It’s now an energy plus community,” Klebl said in an interview. “We produce more power than we use.”

One of the unique things about Geos is the extreme attention to detail with which it was designed — from the overall layout to each individual house. Houses come equipped with charging stations (either solar or photovoltaic) to charge electric cars; a complex network of parks and public spaces are connected by paths and trails, all of which eventually connect to the Ralston Creek Regional Greenway; and while not quite at Charlie and the Chocolate Factory levels, Geos sports an “edible landscape,” with fruit trees lining many of the neighborhood’s green spaces.

Most of this is still in the development stage—only eight of a planned 300 units have been built so far. The rest of the units—combination of townhouses and single family houses—should be completed in multiple stages over the next four to five years. The next 14 homes will be ready by the first quarter of next year.

Geos is raising the bar for energy efficient neighborhoods. “We’re not only a sustainable living community, but a power generator,” Klebl said. “I would like to see more of that in the future— neighborhoods that actually power their surroundings.”

Holiday, Boulder

Photo courtesy of Nola Chow

Until 1989, the parcel of land at the heart of Boulder’s Holiday Neighborhood was home to the Holiday Twin Screen Drive-In Theater. Whereas all of the neighborhoods profiled in this piece have affordable housing in some shape or form, Holiday is almost exclusively comprised of low and middle income families and individuals. And it is a prime example of how you don’t have to break the bank to find sustainable design and an ecofriendly minded neighborhood.

While not as walkable as, say, Prospect New Town, getting around in Holiday is still remarkably easy. Bus routes are never more than five minutes away, and the Holiday Neighborhood Eco Pass lets locals travel on all the bus and rail lines in the Boulder and Denver metro areas for free, all year long.

Many homes in Holiday are as green as they come, with features like solar-powered water heating and insulation that optimizes heat retention in houses. To achieve this standard, yet still keep homes affordable, partnerships were developed with Habitat for Humanity and Affordable Housing Alliance to defray costs.

And just as lower cost doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice energy efficient housing, neither does it mean you have to sacrifice style. The colorful, contemporary houses, and the quaint brick buildings of the business district are straight out of a movie.

Nomad Cohousing Community, North Boulder

Photo courtesy of Josh Berman

Most of the neighborhoods covered here encompass tens or hundreds of acres and can have communities of thousands of people. Nomad Cohousing represents the other end of the spectrum. With just 11 homes located on a single acre, Nomad is an intentional, environmentally conscious neighborhood.

All of the houses sit around a central outdoor common space—the linchpin of the cohousing philosophy. While families have their own private spaces, once they leave the house, things are much more like an Israeli Kibbutz than your average American community. There is a Nomad Common House which has a communal kitchen, and a Nomad Playhouse where community events and meals are had. (Not every meal is shared—usually two per week.)

Neshama Abraham, a founding member of Nomad Cohousing, explained that the closeness of the community naturally gives rise to more sustainable living. “We share resources. For example, only one stove is on when we’re cooking a community meal versus 11. So there’s a lower carbon footprint.” That also leads to a cheaper lifestyle. “When you buy in bulk to cook for a big group, it only costs $35 per person,” Abraham explained.

The homes all have solar panels, recycled materials are used whenever possible, and the residents do all the upkeep themselves on community work days, whether it be digging an irrigation ditch or staining the houses’ decks.

Unsurprisingly, perhaps the most special thing about Nomad Cohousing is the close relationships everyone forms. Abraham has two daughters, and she said they have far more brothers and sisters than they would have if they had grown up elsewhere. The neighbors are family. Abraham said Nomad is truly the embodiment of the old adage, “It takes a village to raise a child.”

SILO, Lafayette

SILO is arguably the greenest neighborhood on this list. The carbon footprint from its residents is a resounding zero.

Of course, that’s mainly because it doesn’t exist yet and so no one lives there. Yet another neighborhood based on the precepts of New Urbanism, SILO is almost a reality, with construction set to commence in early 2018. When building is complete, there will be some 480 units situated on 80 acres of land, 37 parks and public spaces, and cutting edge sustainability initiatives of all types.

SILO is intended to appeal to an older demographic, largely comprised of emptynesters and retirees. “Walkability and wayfinding is important for both kids and the elderly, so we try to keep that in mind,” explained David Kahn, one of SILO’s designers from SUN (Sustainable Urban Neighborhoods) Studio.

While SILO subdivision will feature net zero energy homes on par with those in Geos, a community supported farm, and percolation parks to help with water use efficiency, greater Lafayette is no slouch when it comes to sustainability and greenness. The City of Lafayette has sponsored programs in which residents can trade in their gas-powered lawn mowers for substantial discounts on electric mowers, installed multiple electric car charging stations around town, and implemented other programs aimed at reducing waste and conserving water.

As such, SILO will continue to push Lafayette further in its green ambitions.

S’Park, Boulder

Good LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certifications are something that forward-thinking developers and institutions covet for their projects. LEEDND (Neighborhood Development) is a newer certification that grades entire neighborhood designs on greenness, and, to date, no communities in Colorado have received LEEDND’s highest distinction of “platinum.”

The S’Park Neighborhood in Boulder Junction aims to change that. Not only will S’Park be Colorado’s first LEEDND platinum certified neighborhood, it will be only the third in the entire U.S. Though still in the the building phase, when finished S’Park will integrate over 200 residential multifamily units, nearly 100,000 square feet of office space, over 40,000 square feet of ground level retail space, a 271 space covered parking garage, in just 7 acres of perfectly situated real estate in downtown Boulder.

Residents will all receive Eco Passes for the Boulder transit system, but it will also be a biker’s haven. Multiple bikesharing stations will be incorporated into the neighborhood, and Community Cycle, a nonprofit working to make bicycles available to the community, will have a new bigger headquarters in S’Park.

S’Park will be a “guinea pig” for a model Ecodistrict, pioneering the way for “neighborhoodscale sustainability standards,” according to developer Sopher Sparn Architects’ website. And the S’Park website itself sums up the ethos of the envisioned community quite simply: “It’s all built on the notion that retail, office, and residential spaces work best when they can coexist and collaborate.”

The community is still being built, but people are already lining up to reserve residential, retail and office space—what are you waiting for?!

Josephine Commons, Lafayette

For much of the twentieth century, the land on which the Josephine Commons neighborhood now sits was the antithesis of green. It was home to a coal mine run by the Rocky Mountain Fuel Company. The owner was Josephine Aspinwall Roche, the current community’s namesake. While sustainability was not a cause on her radar in that era, that a community bearing her name should be at the forefront of green living is fitting nonetheless: Roche spent much of her life fighting for worker’s rights, be it the right for miners to unionize and earn living wages, or speaking out against child labor.

Josephine Commons is now an exemplar of sustainable building practices. Its 153 units rely on solar panels and geothermal heating and cooling systems. Beyond renewable energy, the builders also took into account air quality when designing the development’s layout and individual structures.

And just as Josephine Aspinwall Roche didn’t discriminate between worthy causes, neither does Josephine Commons’ greenness preclude it from tackling other pressing social justice issues. The development was explicitly designed to address a dearth of housing both affordable and appropriate for seniors. To live in one of the 70 units that were part of the first phase of building completed in 2012, residents were required to be over 55 years old and earn below a certain threshold amount.

The neighborhood also sought to meld the dual mandates of affordable senior housing and sustainability. The neighborhood’s common garden is handicapped accessible, and a soft trail running through the development is easy on the joints and a pleasure to stroll along. No doubt Josephine Aspinwall Roche would be proud of the neighborhood that now bears her name.

Kestrel, Louisville

Despite its modest size—a humble 200 affordable homes on a 13 acre plot—the one-year-old Kestrel housing development is already having a global reach.

In early 2016, as the geothermal infrastructure of the nascent Kestrel was being built, an international delegation with representatives from both Europe and Asia visited for a tour. “They came to see the installation of the geothermal system at Kestrel,” explained Jim Williams, Strategic Communications Director of Boulder County Housing and Human Services (BCHHS). “It’s not that typical for affordable housing in the U.S. or over there to use geothermal, and they wanted to do something similar in their home countries.”

“They were pretty impressed,” Williams said.

Kestrel’s use of a geothermal system to regulate year-round temperatures in its buildings goes a long way toward BCHHS’ goal of making the neighborhood a net zero energy development. But beyond its sustainability selling points, geothermal is also critical to BCHHS’ ability to offer Kestrel’s units at such an affordable price. Williams said, “We pay for all the residents’ utilities in these places. The low energy costs help ensure that we can have affordable housing for more people.”

The development contains both family and senior housing, integrated into a single neighborhood. The community garden, much like Josephine Commons’, serves as a gathering place for young and old alike.

And if residents want to get out into greater Louisville, all they have to do is go for a short stroll. The public spaces were designed to easily connect to bike paths and trails already in the Louisville area. Walking to the grocery store and other essential services is no problem. According to Williams, that was a major consideration: “It’s part of the way we look at the work we do—how can we situate our affordable homes in a way that helps facilitate people’s access to what they need.”

It’s the Holy Grail of Halloween treats: a full sized candy bar, preferably chocolate, preferably Hershey’s. This year Halloween’s on a Friday night and come clear skies or a foot of snow, kids will be out there searching for the best areas for top notch treats. So let’s be sure to find them.I

“Louisville.” That’s what parent’s keep saying when asked which town has the best treats this time of year. “A lot of homes are decorated in Louisville, “says Jenny Hart, mother of three. “We have a party down (here) because Vista Lane and West Mulberry are so great for candy and decorations.”

Old Town Lafayette has its own rustic charms, and with the nice grid layout of the neighborhoods it makes door-to-door treat hunting easy. Be sure to get off the highway and visit the smaller shops, sometimes we forget they serve up more than peach cobbler over there.

With a name like Erie, you know this town’s got Halloween buckled down. But if you can only pick one neighborhood, drop by Erie Village. With its neo-Victorian architecture, neighbors make the most of the season with haunted houses popping up from year to year. A walk through the Village on any autumn afternoon is sure to stir up the holiday spirit.

Keep your eyes peeled these weeks leading up to Halloween. One or two families can turn a blah neighborhood into an “aaaaaaaah!” neighborhood overnight. If you’re too busy dashing around, you may miss a nearby celebration zone. It’s become a theme lately, sticking close to home, especially after so many communities had to pull together last year in the 100 Year Flood’s wake. It’s become on trend for friends to put on family potlucks and neighborhoods to close down a whole block for local partie. The Village at Five Parks, a suburban area South of Superior in Arvada, is a prime example of how to keep celebrations close to home. With Miekeljohn Elementary in the middle of several subdivisions, almost everyone has a child or grandchild coming by.

But kids, especially older ones, still want to venture out in search of bigger hauls. Of course, Rock Creek in Superior is always a good place to hit up if you don’t mind the upward and downward climb. Clayton Circle got an extra knowing look and waggling of eyebrows from preteens this season. Gossip is not the best reliable source however. So if you want to find the best neighborhoods this year, or any year, you need to do your research.

Before the Big Day

1. Cruise around ahead of time. Look for areas that put out the most elaborate decoration, and who put their Halloween decorations up first.

2. Look for nice, if creepily decorated, houses clumped closely together – the more doors you knock on the more chances you have of a good score.

3. Keep to well-lit areas with wide sidewalks and lots of pre-planted trees. These are signs of neighborhoods set up for walking and visiting.

4. Look for evidence of kids throughout the neighborhood, not at just one house. Toys scattered everywhere. Streets blocked off by portable soccer and hockey goals, basketball nets, kids bikes everywhere.

5. Ask around. Parents, kids. Who’s bought the good candy and who’s just trying to get rid of last year’s stale junk (boooo!).

6. Go where the kids are. If they’ve got elementary schools nearby they’ve got candy.

7. Consider other options. Church groups, neighborhood parties and shops. WOW! Children’s Museum in Louisville hosts a family Halloween Party every year, and the Butterfly Pavilion throws their annual Bug-a-Boo October 18th and 19th this year. That way you can stay home and be the one handing out the awesome treats this year.

Tips for Halloween Day

1. Set out early but not too early. At least give folks time to get home from work and set up. Let the toddlers and babies go first to warm people up.

2. Start with the places you staked out earlier, but make time side runs to places that got in the holiday spirit overnight.

3. Look for lights on, decorations out, and easy to find doorways. Precious minutes are lost looking for that hidden side door. Unless there’s a trail of other kids leading the way, keep clear.

4. Follow or join a group that’s on the move. Steer clear of hooking up with a pack of little kids – one of them is bound to fall. Look for locals that you may know.

5. Watch the younger kids as they leave a street. Are they filled with joy waving full sized candy or disappointed? Don’t waste your time if they all look sad.

6. Use the grid system. Up one side, down the other. Don’t keep crossing the street. Don’t get distracted by side streets unless they look promising.

7. Keep an eye out at the end of the night. Early risers sometimes just leave the bowl out front after awhile and go to bed.

8. Don’t waste your time on places with their lights off or with hard to find front doors. Especially if they have zero Halloween décor.

9. Never leave a man, or ghost, or princess behind. It may cost you some time to wait for a lagging friend, but it will pay off later when it’s time to trade.

10. And perhaps the most important rule: Be a good giver yourself. Don’t hand out cruddy candy. Be consistent and hand out the good stuff year after year. Candy karma is real.
