The civic center in Edgewater, Colorado, started as a dream two decades ago and has now finally opened to the public. Edgewater is a Denver suburb that has a population of approximately 5,000 people and was named for its lakefront location at Sloan’s Lake.
The 55,000 square-foot civic center is home to city offices, the police department, a municipal library, and a fitness center that offers classes for residents. The new building allowed the police department to move out of a former grocery store and upgrade their evidence room, which previously was the size of a walk-in closet.
