East Powers Avenue Sidewalk Renovations

The sidewalk and retaining wall on East Powers Avenue, directly south of Greenwood Elementary, recently got a makeover. In August, Greenwood Village installed a new concrete retaining wall to replace the failing timber retaining wall, and the new sidewalk was widened to 8 feet to better accommodate pedestrians and snow removal operations.

In addition, the project also included a new Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant ramp, drainage improvements, and new cobble and mulch landscaping.
