Sand Creek Park, a 100-acre park, is located between the former Fitzsimmons Army Medical Center and the former Stapleton International Airport, both of which are under redevelopment. The Sand Creek Regional Greenway Trail passes through the park, linking open space throughout the City of Aurora.

The new park will provide recreational activities for the community while enhancing Sand Creek and preserving the natural prairie and riparian ecosystems. BHA developed thematic plans for three ponds, interactive waterfalls, an amphitheater, a picnic pavilion, low-water and equestrian creek crossings, and a trail system through the park.
