13th Avenue is a major connector in central Denver between downtown and Sun Valley and Denver west. As one of the only streets with at-grade pedestrian and bicycle connections across the Light Rail, Consolidated Main Line Rail and South Platte River, it provides a critical link between neighborhoods and destinations on the east and west side of the South Platte River. For decades, the street functioned as a nondescript industrial and commercial back door serving areas south of downtown. The recent resurgence of neighborhoods south of Downtown has precipitated the need for 13th Avenue to serve as a multi-modal street and connection, bridging neighborhoods and reconnecting communities. The realigned multimodal 13th Avenue provides a direct connection between the South Platte River and Federal Boulevard with reconstructed roadway, pedestrian facilities, integrated street-side stormwater planters, and a new two-way bicycle facility. Realignment and continuation of Bryant Street alongside Holden Place weave the northern portion of the Sun Valley Neighborhood together.
