Alpine Balsam Website
The Alpine Balsam Project website is nearing completion!
In 2015, the City of Boulder purchased the 8.8 acres of property, which is the entire hospital campus site at 1100 Balsam Ave. (the corner of Balsam and Broadway Street), as well as two properties on Alpine Avenue and two small properties on North Street. Public input throughout the process will help ensure the site’s history and character are incorporated into the project.The city purchased the site for several reasons. First, it is an important site to the community and a rare opportunity to help ensure that future redevelopment of the site fits the community’s vision and goals and enhances the character of the neighborhood. Second, the site presents an additional option for the city to consider as part of a larger facilities-visioning process that may save resources by consolidating office space and public-facing services that are currently leased to the city in a number of locations. The city will also be considering other potential uses for the site to best benefit the community. It will take many months of gathering community input and planning before the current site can be transformed, but the process of evaluating potential uses is part of the Boulder Valley Comprehensive Plan update. City staff will work with the community to explore future options and will solicit input to ensure that the development fits in with the community’s vision and goals.
