Collection: Blair-Caldwell African American Research Library
Description: Designing the WE, a New York design studio focused on social innovation, developed the “Undesign the Redline” interactive exhibit, workshop series, and curriculum. The exhibit explores the history of structural racism and inequality, and examines how these issues compounded each other, from 1938 Redlining maps until today. The exhibit travels nationally, tailoring its materials to the situation in each city. The exhibit is intended to help communities learn together, activate, and mobilize into a strong “WE” capable of transforming racist systems with intentionality. “Undesign the Redline” was hosted by Denver’s Blair-Caldwell African American Research Library from November 2018 through July 2019.

Description: In 2023, Denverites voted on referendum 2O, intended to lift the city’s conservation easement on land in Northeast Park Hill that was formerly known as the Park Hill Golf Course. Westside Investment Partners had purchased the land between 35th and 40th, and Colorado and Dahlia, in 2019. Their development plan included lifting the conservation easement that restricts the property to serving as a golf course, and then constructing housing, retail spaces, and a park. The 2O referred measure was Westside’s third attempt to lift the easement, with each effort being voted down by Denver’s voters. This article examines the history of the 155-acre plot, from 1859 to 2023.

Description: In 2023, Denverites voted on Referendum 2O, intended to lift the city’s conservation easement on land in Northeast Park Hill that was formerly known as the Park Hill Golf Course. Westside Investment Partners had purchased the land between 35th and 40th, and Colorado and Dahlia, in 2019. Their development plan included lifting the conservation easement that restricts the property to use as a golf course, and then constructing housing, retail spaces, and a park. The 2O referred measure was Westside’s third attempt to lift the easement, against a community group that ran an opposition campaign. The opposition group, “Yes for Parks and Open Space,” hoped to protect the citizen-funded easement, and had hopes that the city would buy the property and build a large park. Ultimately, each of Westside’s three easement removal efforts were voted down by Denver’s voters. This article reports the final referendum results.

Prior to the 2O measure in 2023, a group of community members and politicians created an opposition campaign: “Yes for Parks and Open Space.” Through op-eds, yard signs, leafleting, community meetings, and this website, the Yes for Parks and Open Space group argued against lifting the easement, and for protecting the large open space in an undeveloped state.
