Pikes Peak Center improvements indoors and out

Why are they digging up the lawn in front of Pikes Peak Center? What’s going on
- DEBBIE D.

ANSWER: It’s part of the major improvements at the Pikes Peak Center. First they spruced up the interior and, among other things, added some much-needed restrooms.

Now, they’re creating Wells Fargo Plaza out front.What had been a large green expanse of lawn will become a more pedestrian-friendly and inviting area, with new places to stroll and sit, terraced landscaping, a xeriscape garden, an amphitheater for outdoor events and a plaza. Everything should be complete and ready to enjoy by June.

Earlier in “Did You Ever Wonder?” we reported that there would be a new marquee to replace the original one that was having technical difficulties. The new marquee has been installed and calls the center by its new full name: Pikes Peak Center for the Performing Arts.
