Downtown Boulder and the Pearl Street Mall

The Mall is a four block outdoor pedestrian mall boasting a show Pearl Street Mallof seasonal flowers and native trees. On any given night street performers ply their trade and musicians play while passers by pause to enjoy. Annual festivals celebrating Boulder's diverse community are staged here too. Beautifully preserved historic buildings continue all along East and West Pearl where the shopping and dining continues. Boulder maintains many of its historic buildings from the city's origins as the supply center for mining operations during the late 1800's. Our photo gallery compares the old and the new.

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).

Additionally, 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.
