We were part of the innovative design
team tasked with the transformation of the
140,000-square-foot Stanley Aviation building
and 22-acre site into Stanley Marketplace, a
mixed-use community destination that hous-
es local retail and restaurants, co-working of-
fice space, a community garden and an event
center, among its diverse tenants.
Consilium Design formulated a concept for
Stanley Marketplace to create an inviting, at-
tractive and functional landscape that accom-
plishes environmental, cultural and economic
sustainability principles.
In keeping with our goal of uncommon re-
spect for people, planet and purpose, we iden-
tified native landscape zones and prioritized
preservation and restoration, with addition-
al xeriscape plantings that reduce watering
needs.
The reduced impervious surfaces through-
out the site and the reuse of salvaged mate-
rials from previous structures mitigate the
overall impact of construction.
Our team prepared a site master plan that
includes a 6-acre parklike open space, event
terraces and urban market plazas that will
further establish Stanley Marketplace as a
neighborhood destination. By accommodat-
ing multimodal transportation, we see in-
creases in circulation and ease of access to the
venue.
Stanley Marketplace is the cornerstone re-
development for the Westerly Creek Village
Urban Renewal Plan in Northwest Aurora,
Colorado. The landscape design is reflective
of the site and its cultural, historic and physi-
cal context within Westerly Creek Village and
Stapleton.
Consilium Design and the team accom-
plished these impressive sustainability goals:
• Preservation and restoration of the native
landscape.
• Adaptive reuse of salvaged materials and
structures.
• Minimization of impervious surfaces.
• The reduction of the urban heat island ef-
fect.
• The enhancement of water quality.
• Xeriscape design.
• The encouragement of multi-modal trans-
portation.
