A developer planned a beer garden at a vacant aviation plant, but the idea changed after the site was discovered. The former Stanley Aviation building became Stanley Marketplace, a $25 million, 22-acre community hub with 140,000 square feet of space. The project brought together more than 50 independent Colorado businesses, including restaurants, shops, a brewery, a gymnastics studio and workspaces.
