Denver, in the order of "oh yeah, that too":

1. Passed Fastracks, though the boon-doogle it has become is very much a mixed blessing. Also the completion of T-Rex.

2. 2008 DNC and the resulting bike sharing program.

3. Avs won a Stanley Cup. Rapids got an MLS trophy. Rockies had an improbable ride to the World Series. CU got robbed of a National Title Game. DU won a few national championships and no one really noticed. Broncos had a bazillion QBs. Melo came and went.

4. Convention Center and final DCPA renovations/additions completed.

5. New office building projects from the EPA Region 8 office building to 1800 Larimer.

6. New residential projects in downtown from Spire to smaller developments in Highland.

7. The Libeskind addition to the Denver Art Museum and more new museums on the way!

8. The new zoning code, even if Highland doesn't like it.

9. Better Denver Bond projects.

10. I moved out to Colorado.

Noteworthy projects: Stapleton development, but urban-surburbia is just so icky.
