Air Force Memorial Soars Into the Sky!

Emelyn Morris-Sayre, CRS, REALTOR Lakewood/Denver 303-517-5116: Real Estate Agent in Lakewood, CO

The Air Force Memorial soars into the sky. This striking and very simple memorial immediately draws your eyes up to the sky, a very fitting tribute to the men and women who have served or are serving our Country in the Air Force. The site overlooks the Pentagon, parts of Arlington National Cemetery and Washington DC in the distance.

New Lights and Trees Coming to Crystal City...

crystal city improvement project

Crystal City isn't the same boring, concrete slab it was a decade ago.

In case you haven't noticed, a lot is happening in the Crystal City neighborhood. There are outdoor zumba classes, wine Fridays, 5Ks, a farmer's market, and a ton of new restaurants and shops.

On Monday, the Crystal City Business Improvement District (BID) broke ground on its Southern Entryway project, near the intersection of Route 1 and 33rd Street.

The parcel of land, owned by Gould Property Company, is located at the southern point of Crystal City's confines. Nearly 50,000 commuters make their way to Crystal City and points north through this land each and every day.

Those coming to Crystal City from the south will soon be greeted by 28 gorgeous trees and beautiful LED lights, where currently there is just a slab of grass. The trees and lights will be woven into a geometric pattern with grass and plenty of space for lounging.

This Crystal City improvement project will take six to eight weeks to complete and is slated to be completed by Thanksgiving 2011.
