Denver International Airport Hotel and Transit Center Project Named 2016 Real Estate Champion

PASADENA, CA (July 7, 2016) – Parsons is pleased to announce that the Denver Business Journal has awarded the Denver International Airport (DEN) Hotel and Transit Center project with the 2016 Real Estate Champion Catalyst Award. Parsons—which provided project management, design, and construction support services for the transit center and airport rail station—will be recognized with DEN officials and other members of the project development team at a special awards event on July 12. The winners also will be profiled in a special report published by the Denver Business Journal online and in print on July 15. The Real Estate Champion Awards recognize high-profile real estate projects that have significantly contributed to the Denver metro area.

“Parsons’ work on the DEN Hotel and Transit Center spanned the last 7 years,” said Michael Johnson, Parsons Group President. “We brought together many of our top experts in airports, rail transit, and construction to contribute to the success of this project. I’m grateful that our team’s hard work and dedication has been recognized as having made a significant contribution to the greater Denver area and the aviation community as a whole.”

The DEN Hotel and Transit Center consists of independent yet physically integrated facilities, including the 519-room Westin hotel and conference center, a public plaza for dining and entertainment, and a public transit center that includes a centralized bus pick-up/drop-off area and a commuter rail station connecting the airport with downtown Denver.
