Winter Weather Delays, Live Music, and Affordable Senior Housing in Boulder
Published 3 months ago
Description
Good morning, this is your Boulder Local Frequency for Monday, January 26th.
We're starting the week with some brisk winter weather across the Front Range. Extremely cold conditions and light accumulating snow prompted several school districts in Northern Colorado to delay their starts this morning, with some pushing back bus pickup times by two hours. While things are settling down now, it's a good reminder to bundle up if you're heading out and about in Boulder today.
Speaking of getting out, there's plenty to do this evening if you're looking for some entertainment. Music lovers should know that eTown Hall in Boulder is hosting a taping tonight featuring Katie Pruitt, Tyler Ramsey, and Carl Broemel. The show runs from seven to nine thirty, tickets are forty eight dollars, and you can grab them at etown.org. If you prefer jazz, the Ryan Black Quintet is performing at Dazzle at Baur's in Denver starting at six thirty. And for those interested in live theater, Exit Pursued by a Bear takes the stage at seven at the People's Building in Aurora.
Looking for something a bit more creative? Sipping and Painting Hampden is hosting an Aurora Borealis themed painting session from six thirty to eight thirty tonight. It's thirty five dollars and registration is required on their website.
On the cultural front, there's quite a bit happening this week. The Museum of Contemporary Art Denver is showing Roni Horn's Water Water on the Wall You're the Fairest of Them All through February 15th. Over at the Denver Art Museum, Andrea Carlson's A Constant Sky runs through February 16th. And if you want to get outdoors, the Denver Botanic Gardens is featuring Agave Symbol and Spirit through March 22nd.
Now, turning to local development, Presbyterian Manor here in Boulder is planning a significant expansion. The organization is proposing a new three story building with about sixty units of affordable senior housing right next to their existing eleven story tower on Arapahoe Avenue. The plan includes covered parking and would serve low income seniors earning no more than sixty percent of Boulder's area median income. However, the project has hit a bump in the road with Boulder's Landmarks Board, as four Craftsman era houses from the nineteen twenties that currently sit on the property may be historically significant. The board is exploring alternatives to demolition while balancing the real and pressing need for more affordable senior housing in our community.
This has been Boulder Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
