“On behalf of the Highlands Ranch Metro District Board of Directors, I’m so proud that the Highlands Ranch Senior Center has been recognized as a top project,” said Metro District Board Chair Renee Anderson. “Our board envisioned a welcoming center to be enjoyed by people 55 and older.

We’re thrilled to receive the ColoradoBiz Top Project award – the senior center is in good company with other outstanding projects in Colorado.”
The recognized projects were judged for their degree of difficulty, creativity in design, innovative construction techniques, cooperation among contractors and management, and sustainability efforts.
