Conveniently located suburban pocket

With planes flying overhead and light rails speeding by, Meridian is a transportation hub and comfortable middle ground for those who want to live in a suburban neighborhood with proximity to shopping and dining. Only 4 miles from Lone Tree, Meridian residents can easily hop on Interstate 25 to Park Meadows Mall or ride the R Line 20 miles to downtown Denver. Despite being located directly south of Centennial Airport, the neighborhood’s air quality is normal and most noise comes from the highways rather than the skies. As such, the pockets of residential neighborhoods away from the interstate foster a quiet and conveniently located community. “It’s just such a nice suburban neighborhood outside the urban essence of Denver, but still close enough to get there if you need anything,” says Sean Dorrance, an associate broker with NAV Real Estate who has seven years of experience.

With a multitude of housing options and proximity to dining, Meridian is conveniently located.

Lone Tree’s transportation hub

Meridian has multiple modes of transportation that travel across the Denver metro area. There are three RTD light rail stations in the neighborhood – Lincoln Station, County Line Station and Lone Tree City Station. Commuters can connect to Lines E and R from each one to get to downtown Denver or south of the city. Those who prefer driving have access to both Interstate 25 and Expressway 470. Centennial Airport takes up the northern half of the neighborhood. While it does not offer commercial flights, the airport still offers private charter flights and provides flight school opportunities. “They just get little jets flying in and out, but it’s pretty cool,” Dorrance says. “They actually have a fantastic restaurant there called The Perfect Landing. If you go there often, you can find Clint Eastwood eating a steak. He stops here in Centennial a lot.” Commuting within Meridian comes with many options. Local bus services have stops along Lincoln Avenue. There’s also Spin at Meridian, a mobility program with 12 stations across the area offering electric scooters and e-bikes. In case of medical emergencies, residents can head to Sky Ridge Medical Center right on the other side of I-25.

National retailers and locally owned restaurants

Shopping for essentials is a breeze with one of Colorado’s largest indoor malls, Park Meadows, just a stone’s throw away from Meridian. Park Meadows Mall boasts over 180 nationally known retailers, from department stores like Dillard’s to clothing brands like Nordstrom, L.L. Bean and Tommy Bahama. In addition to retail stores, the mall also has several restaurant chains, including fine-dining places like Perry’s Steakhouse and Grille and more sporty eateries like Yard House. “The average income is a bit higher here, so you’ve got some nicer restaurants in the area,” Dorrance says. Across the street is a commercial center with Costco for groceries. Back within Meridian’s own neighborhood streets, there are plenty of standalone local restaurants. Parry’s Sliceria & Taps is a pizzeria known for its craft beer selection and New York industrial ambiance. There’s also Tino’s Kitchen, with its modern American grub, and On the Rox Sports Bar & Grill, the local watering hole with bar food and happy hour deals. Watch the Broncos, Rockies, Nuggets or Avalanche games on one of its 40 HD TVs.

Meridian’s golf course and greenspaces

Despite Meridian’s undeveloped open spaces and industrial areas, multiple pockets of green add a hint of nature to the neighborhood. The Meridian Golf Club is private and centralized in the area, offering an 18-hole course and practice facilities for members. Surrounding the golf course are several athletics fields, including softball and a soccer complex. Sarah’s Place Memorial Park is along Jamaica Street and has a playground for little ones and a dog park for furry friends. Across from Centennial Airport, John Derry Park’s paved walking paths surround a pond and lead to picnic shelters with horseshoe pits. Meridian Commons Park comes equipped with an outdoor gym and playground area
