Sterling Gulch Wildlife Corridor - Ascent Village

Spanning 300’ wide at its narrowest point, the Sterling Gulch Wildlife Corridor will weave through Ascent Village, connecting Providence Regional Park to the north with a larger contiguous open space to the south. It will be home to a native high plains prairie landscape and will include a grade-separated wildlife crossing underneath Waterton Road. The corridor will simultaneously balance stormwater management, residential development, and safe passage for wildlife that find their way into the corridor.

Cultural Trail - Ascent Village

Between the north and southbound lanes of Middle Fork Street, a typical street median suddenly widens and transforms into an unexpected open space resource facilitating physical, social, and cultural connections within Ascent Village. A trail through the center of the open space provides a vital physical connection to the larger regional trail system at Sterling Ranch. Meet some friends at the trail-head for a hike; reflect on the local art exhibits periodically staged along the trail, or just hang out and relax with a social group at one of the amenity nodes along the way. The connections are yours to discover at Ascent Village. Amenity Nodes stationed along the Cultural Trail within the Middle Fork Street Open Space provide seating, gathering space, and other social opportunities such as bocce ball and bag-toss games. Grill out or enjoy a picnic while you await your turn to play. Stop and chat with some neighbors while on your morning walk or schedule a time to meet with your social group in this amazingly flexible space.
