Home opener to bring big economic boost

Downtown Denver Partnership estimates the home opener could generate more than $6 million in incremental economic activity downtown. The spike will likely be concentrated in restaurants, bars, retail and hospitality through increased foot traffic and short-term spending. Impact is localized and event-driven; monitor hotel occupancy and point-of-sale data for confirmation.
