The community is located at the southeast corner of Wadsworth Boulevard and 118th Avenue. Alta Harvest was just completed in late 2014. It is currently 93 percent leased. The new development was modeled after the 280-unit Alta Aspen Grove in Littleton, which was also developed by Wood Partners. That property now operates as Berkshire Aspen Grove. Common-area amenities at Alta Harvest include a resort-style swimming pool, outdoor fireplace, lawn courtyard, dog park and wash, bicycle/ski repair shop, plaza with seating and water features, fitness center, yoga/serenity room and a business center. Wood Partners dedicated 1.4 acres of the site as public land. Part of this land was turned into a one-acre pocket park. A half-acre urban trail along the east and south edges of the development connects to the future light rail stop. It also created a pedestrian route that accesses the RTD Regional Transit Station at West 116th Avenue. Wood Partners acted as the general contractor on Alta Harvest, while Womack Hampton served as the architect.
