Location:  
The True North Commons Urban Renewal Area is located along the northern border of the City of Colorado Springs in El Paso County, within the United States Air Force Academy (USAFA) federally owned property.  Its boundaries may generally be described as including land located north and south of Northgate Boulevard, near the northwest and southwest quadrants of Northgate Boulevard and Interstate 25 (I-25).  It is comprised of two individual parcels totaling approximately 39 acres, and the adjacent Northgate Boulevard right-of-way.  

Plan Goals:  
The vision for the new True North Commons development is to seamlessly embrace the overall character and history of the Air Force Academy campus while providing an iconic architectural Visitors Center Facility.  The master plan will include a mix of complimentary, non-residential uses such as commercial, hotel, office and retail/restaurant, all designed to complement and be integrated with the new Visitor Center.
​ 
Current Status: 
The CSURA Board approved the Condition Study Report (blight study) and the fiscal impact report on December 12, 2018.  The final plan was approved by the CSURA Board on April 24, 2019.  The Cooperation Agreement between the City and CSURA was approved on July 9, 2019.
