Even if you don't live or work in the city of Denver, you probably visit the 16th Street Mall from time to time. The plans for the mall redesign that we have seen would eliminate any tactual boundary between the traffic lanes and areas where pedestrians would gather or walk. All interested persons are welcome.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>To get a Zoom link for the 16th Street Mall ADA Stakeholders Meeting, you need to send an email to Loretta LaRiviere <<a href="Loretta.LaRiviere@jacobs.com">Loretta.LaRiviere@jacobs.com</a>> indicating your interest in attending.
