Elevate Downtown is the master plan for Downtown Colorado Springs and the Downtown Development Authority’s official Plan of Development. Adopted by City Council in 2026, it updates the 2016 Experience Downtown Plan and establishes priorities for development, investment, mobility, public spaces, culture, and neighborhood growth over the next 10 years and beyond.
For business owners, commercial brokers, property owners, and investors, the plan identifies desired uses and development opportunities, provides context for evaluating projects, and guides the DDA’s funding and investment priorities.
