Mineral Place Development

Mineral Place is a transformative 63-acre redevelopment project in Littleton, Colorado, reimagining a long-vacant industrial site into a vibrant mixed-use destination. The revitalized development will feature a 370-unit luxury apartment community, nine small retail stores, a Costco Wholesale with a 32-pump gas station, and potential restaurants to bring new energy, housing, and economic opportunity to the area.

A key milestone in the transformation was the demolition of the 130-foot Qwest Tower, originally built in 1970 as part of a tire manufacturing facility. The tower demolition, along with the removal of approximately 800,000 square feet of outdated industrial buildings, created a clean slate for new development and infrastructure.

Galloway provided civil engineering services for the site’s master infrastructure and other individual pad sites, including grading, utility design, drainage, and entitlement support. One of the project’s engineering challenges involved consolidating multiple detention ponds into a single, strategically located pond in the site’s northwest corner. This approach maximized developable space while still meeting stormwater management requirements.

Successful delivery of this large-scale project required extensive coordination with the residential developer, Costco, the City of Littleton, and Denver Water. Galloway’s collaborative, solutions-focused approach helped keep the project on schedule and aligned with the vision for a thriving new community hub.
