The Jefferson Park district is known for being the home to the new Mile High Stadium (Invesco Field) and for its stunning views of the Downtown skyline.  However, Jefferson Park was one of the few Center City districts that didn't experience any new infill projects during the boom of the 1990s. 

Not anymore.  The Jefferson Park district is now seeing plenty of new residential development.  With many of the other Center City districts viewed as not affordable to many people, Jefferson Park is finally being discovered as an urban district that is both remarkably close to Downtown and still relatively affordable.  Still a district in transition, the key to successful revitalization of Jefferson Park will be the ability to retain its ethnic diversity and affordability while adding density and infusing the district with new urban vigor.
