A neighborhoodâs quality of life depends as much on what you donât see as it does on whatâs apparent.Â
For Downtown Colorado Springs, that means things like sidewalks that are free of snow in the winter and clean in the summer. And itâs what you do see â flowers in pots and planters, colorful banners on lampposts, lights and decorations during holiday seasons. And itâs a sense of security from regular, visible patrols.
The owners of businesses and property in a 32-block area of Downtown Colorado Springs formed the Greater Downtown Business Improvement District in 2001.
âThe BID was founded because there was a need, not just for supporting Downtown as a whole, but specifically to be aware of cleanliness and safety ⦠in the hub of Colorado Springsâ Downtown,â said Carrie Hibbard Baker, co-owner of Terra Verde and a BID board member.
