The Life

The Mason Corridor fosters more than economic development and improved transportation; it promotes Fort Collins’ active, outdoor, healthy lifestyle. Grab a cup of coffee in route to catch the MAX to work. Visit CSU and stroll through the historic "Oval", attend a lecture, or gaze at the beautiful flowers in the annual trial gardens. Headed Downtown for a meeting? Use MAX to avoid traffic congestion and parking hassles, arrive at your destination quickly; pick up lunch on your way back and groceries on the way home. The Mason Corridor is your link for easy access to work, shops, cultural events, dining and entertainment.

Creating Community Centers

Envision the Mason Corridor station areas: entertainment, housing, workplaces, retail, dining and parks. This type of development around station areas is often called Transit Oriented Development or TOD. TODs foster attractive and sustainable communities that appeal to a variety of lifestyles. The underlying theme to creating successful thriving TODs is people. The arrangement of the buildings, the well-designed architecture, and the inclusion of amenities and art combine to create inviting community centers designed for the people who live, work, shop, play and bring life to our community and foster the vision of Fort Collins as a regionally and nationally renowned destination.
