Boulder Historic Places Plan

DESIGNATION BOUNDARY

Designation Boundary Description: Central Park (Southeast Corner of Broadway and Canyon Boulevard) North 170 feet of Block 13, Original Townsite to the City of Boulder.

The Modern Architecture Preservation League (MAPL) proposed the landmark boundary for designation of Glen Huntington Bandshell in May 1995. In July 1995, the City of Boulder Landmarks Board amended the boundary to the 300'x170' site south of Canyon Boulevard. This boundary included the Bandshell and amphitheater seating along with a portion of the park associated with Saco Rienk DeBoer's design. In October 1995, the amended boundary was approved by City Council and the Bandshell was designated as a Boulder Individual Landmark by Ordinance 5751. 7 The designation boundary includes the Bandshell, the open space between the stage and the seating, the amphitheater seating, two concrete paved sidewalks leading to the Bandshell, and the berm and retaining wall south of the stage.
