The old well-intentioned rules posted at Stapleton’s pocket parks have become too long, stale, outdated, and cumbersome. The Stapleton MCA has taken down the old signs and replaced them with signs that are more direct, yet explain the rules very clearly. [Read more…] about Pocket Park Rules Simplified
Out of Business Stapleton Builders to Hold Reunions with Homeowners
Jeff Feierstein is hoping for a happy reunion. “We think that although there may be some bitterness, its mostly all under the bridge at this point. We probably received about 30 law suits, but they probably understand that they are not going to get any money at this point, so it’s all cool.” [Read more…] about Out of Business Stapleton Builders to Hold Reunions with Homeowners

Forrest City’s “Never Be Specific” Policy Working Out Famously
Forrest City President Phil Dargossi had a lot of foresight when it came to creating the Stapleton Community. Stapleton is already hailed as one of the greatest planned communities in the United States, which pretty much means the world. From the several quality builders that were used to create the differentiation, to the many parks, and the urban living, Stapleton is a very well-planned community.

Entrepreneurial Stapleton resident Keith Carman was the first to the punch. “I have always been fascinated with animal fights,” says Keith Carman. “I watched a lot of discovery channel growing up, and with the down economy, and my recent layoff, this has allowed me to follow my passion.” [Read more…] about Loophole in Animal Permit Law Allows Resident to Hold Cock Fights
Couple Breaks Unwritten Rules of Adult Swim
Last week at the F-15 Pool, a couple was spotted making out during adult swim time. This caught onlookers completely off-guard. The adult swim is a longtime institution whose main purpose is to give parents 15 minutes without having to play with their kids in the pool or having to worry about them getting injured. There are also those that actually swim laps during this time, though they are few and far between. The longtime adult swim institution took a big step back last weekend when the young couple challenged the institution’s unwritten rules.
“I mean, what’s the big deal,” said adult swim make-out bandit Lisa Stone, who is 28 years of age. “We are allowed to be out there during that time, and how we use that time is our business.” Her partner in crime Brandon Litton agrees. “If you don’t want to see it, you don’t have to look. What we do in front of 250 onlookers is our business.” [Read more…] about Couple Breaks Unwritten Rules of Adult Swim
