Three national retailers have closed at the Promenade Shops at Briargate in northern Colorado Springs, as the landscape for local stores and restaurants continues to evolve.
Children s Hospital Colorado plans to resume construction of a clinic in the Briargate area soon that will offer pediatric behavioral health and other services, but is shelving plans for a downtown Colorado Springs clinic.
Both projects, as well as several others by other local hospital operators, were put on hold in April amid a statewide stay-at-home order imposed to slow the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Aurora-based pediatric health care nonprofit continued work on and has completed construction on 16 unfinished patient rooms at its hospital on the UCHealth Memorial North campus in Briargate and is expanding its Briargate outpatient and specialty care clinic with 27 additional exam rooms. All of the Children s projects were unveiled a year ago and are expected to cost $20 million.
