Mile High CRE reports that Colorado nominated census tracts containing two Denver International Airport development districts for OZ 2.0: Peña Station Next and 40th & Airport. They are among 91 tracts submitted by Governor Jared Polis.

Both districts sit near commuter-rail stations and are planned for transit-oriented commercial and hospitality development. Airport officials view designation as a potential way to attract private investment and infrastructure funding. The article describes nominations awaiting the federal process, not completed designations or committed project financing.

## Research considerations

Opportunity Zone coverage can include fund launches, development activity, fundraising, or policy changes. The underlying project and business plan matter alongside the tax framework. Separate the source’s reported development from assumptions about a particular fund or investor.

- Is this a policy update, a project announcement, or a fund-specific development?
- Which project milestones, financing needs, sponsor assumptions, and current legal requirements need further review?
