Progress
The Station Area Master Plan was kicked off with an initial City Council Meeting in January of 2026 and is envisioned to continue for 12-16 months. Currently, the project is in the "Visioning" phase.
Project Overview
The City of Thornton is developing a Station Area Master Plan (STAMP) for the future York at 144th commuter rail station which is expected to be constructed by RTD as it completes building out the N Line.
This plan will guide how land around the future station grows and evolves over time. It will focus on creating a vibrant, walkable, and transit supportive area that connects people to jobs, housing, and amenities.
