Prospect New Town

Built 1996–presentvarious architects (DPZ master plan)

Colorado's first full-scale new-urbanist development, master-planned by Duany Plater-Zyberk on a former tree farm two miles south of downtown. Bold, eclectic architecture — Craftsman, modern farmhouse, and contemporary styles in vivid colors — earns the local nickname 'Toon Town.' Narrow tree-lined streets, a walkable village center, and live/work lofts create a car-optional lifestyle. Average sale price around $881K with rapid appreciation.
