What are the Avalon apartments in reality?

4 Upvotes

My wife and I are moving to Parker soon from out of state and we have been interested in the Avalon apartments on Stroh and Crowfoot Valley Rd. However, the way that they use AI makes it extremely hard to tell what actually exists at this place. Their Instagram is full of pictures where some of them are clearly just stock photos and others are pictures from the premises that are clearly heavily augmented by AI. It’s very hard to tell what’s real. When you call their phone number it sends you to an AI answering service that lets you text with an AI agent. This AI agent told me that they offer virtual tours (they don’t) and told me that I had booked one (I hadn’t) and hallucinated an actual Google calendar invite that it emailed to me (naturally with no way to join since it wasn’t real).

Perspire Sauna Studio Refunds

3 Upvotes

Hi, I was just curious if anyone was contacted after Perspire Sauna Studio Parker closed down abruptly on 8/22. Their announcement email indicated that someone from their team would reach out about refunds, but no one did and I have sent many inquiries trying to get help with so far no results. Is anyone else in this boat?

Considering move to Lincoln Creek Village (North Parker) - thoughts?

8 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

My family is planning a move to the Denver metro area and to some degree we’ve been focusing our search down in the Parker area. We really like the paired home / duplex layouts in Lincoln Creek Village (just east of Parker Rd off Lincoln Ave). The floor plans and price points check almost every box for what we're looking for.

However, watching the MLS over the past couple of months, we noticed an unusual spike in selling activity. We’re trying to do our due diligence from afar to figure out if this is just typical market cooling or if there’s local context we might be missing:

We know about the general commercial build-out along E-470 and saw news about the new data center going into Compark (~4 miles west), though that feels far enough away not to matter. Are there other zoning, utility, or nearby construction projects causing headaches?

If you live in Lincoln Creek Village or nearby, we’d love to hear your honest take on the neighborhood. the good, the bad, and the quirks.

Thanks in advance for any insights!

Did the old Library used to be a Bowling Alley?

7 Upvotes

I was bowling in one of my leagues and the topic of a bowling alley in Parker came up. I've lived in Parker since '99 and have never heard of an alley in Parker. The closest one has always been in Lone Tree (Park Meadows). But one of my team members says she remembers a time when, what used to be the library (is now the Crossroads Business Building, I believe), was once a bowling alley? Now, in 1999 I was 8, so I didn't push back because I'm sure there could've been a bowling alley there and I just never knew or saw it. I believe she said that she's been living in Parker since 1988.

So, for all you long time Parker residents, has there ever been a bowling alley in Parker, CO?

Bonus Question: The bowling alley I love and go to constantly has claimed that it has tried to get a bowling alley in Parker (I think where the movie theater used to be), but a board (not sure which board(s) govern new businesses in Parker) had denied them multiple times. This bowling alley is wonderful:

  • No string pins
  • Lots of leagues
  • Caters to many groups such as the elderly, handicapable, and special needs
  • Has open bowling (just not as much as say, a Bowlero or Lucky Strike)
  • Has food and arcade games
  • etc.

So, the idea that a bowling alley would bring in unwanted activity is silly. I've never been to that bowling alley and been made nervous or uncomfortable by anything. Would you support a bowling alley in Parker? Why/Why not?
