Renovation Plan for Existing 1950's Housing

Renovations include an expansion of the ground floor only or an addition to the second floor. Landscaping ideas and alternative energy building ideas were included in the document. Wheat Ridge plans to use this document as a public idea book for realtors and homeowners. The Wheat Ridge 2020 Inc. is trying to encourage the development of the existing neighborhoods and revitalizing the inner ring suburbs.
