Although it intends to reopen the western end of Pearl Street to car traffic, Boulder is exploring the possibility of repurposing streets and public spaces throughout the downtown area, at least partly due to pushback from the community.
“Though not unanimous, there has been significant feedback from community members in the past few days that many have truly enjoyed the more pedestrian-friendly, open plaza feel of downtown,” the city wrote in a statement issued last week regarding the West Pearl closure.
The closure, which the city says was meant to be temporary, was instituted through Boulder’s business recovery program, an early pandemic effort meant to help restaurants that were forced to shutter or limit capacity. The street closure allowed businesses to expand their outdoor dining options and it provided more safe outdoor space for people to gather.
Because of this, the Downtown Boulder Partnership supports the idea of reopening the street, while studying the possibility of closing streets throughout the downtown district.
