Pretty cool stuff.\u201d\n<!--more-->\nCommerce City has long been a Colorado destination city, but Coloradans have rarely taken weekend trips to explore it.  For Stapleton residents, the Havana Street exit has helped them check something off of their to-do lists.  \u201cI always wanted to check it out, but never had the time,\u201d said resident Jamie Weber.  \u201cNow, with the Havana Exit going right through it, I finally got my chance to see the place.\u201d\nCommerce City Mayor Sean Ford says the extra traffic has been good for the city.  \u201cWe love our sister city of Stapleton,\u201d said Ford.  \u201cThey have helped with our economy, and any traffic is good traffic here.\u201d  Commerce City believes that the detour should bring in an estimated $200,000.  The Havana St. exit detour is expected to last for six more months, however, it could go for another year.  \u201cIt is not that big of an inconvenience,\u201d said Weber.  \u201cMost Stapleton residents have never had a chance to go to Commerce City, so this is really a great opportunity for them.\n]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[116],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-3690","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-issue-57","7":"entry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3690","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3690"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3690\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3690"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3690"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3690"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
