I was in Grand County over the weekend, and it seemed like the whole county was for sale. I'd love to see some statistics.

In addition to unlocking the bank vaults, we need to add modest density to our existing neighborhoods and allow for organic growth.

Open the vaults and leave the rest up the entrepreneurs of Denver. A shortage in apartments will lead to a shortage in quality entry level home ownership in choice neighborhoods.
