Downtown Boulder and the Pearl Street Mall

The Pearl Street Mall is a four-block outdoor pedestrian destination, colorfully decorated with Colorado's seasonal flowers and native trees and paved with red bricks. On most nights, Pearl becomes an outdoor stage for musicians and street performers. Local shops and restaurants line the street and continue along East and West Pearl. Our photo gallery shows how the historic Pearl Street went from an 1800s mining supply center to the home of Boulder's annual festivals and local hot spot.

The Central Area General Improvement District (CAGID)
The Central Area General Improvement District and the City of Boulder’s Downtown University Hill Management Division and Parking Services are responsible for parking operations and related services for this 35-block area. The Downtown Management Commission (DMC) manages, controls and supervises the business affairs of the Central Area General Improvement District (CAGID).

Downtown Boulder is also a Business Improvement District (BID), meaning property owners tax themselves to make their community cleaner, safer and more vibrant. The tax is used by the BID to purchase services that supplement those provided by the city and provide a comprehensive consumer marketing program.
