Boulder Neighborhoods | Holiday

As one of the city’s newer developments, Holiday brings an exciting, multi-use neighborhood to north Boulder. With a variety of sustainably built housing types (including 40% designated as permanently affordable), low-maintenance lifestyle and walkability to new shops, restaurants and workout spots, Holiday has proven a popular choice for Boulder home seekers.

Holiday was built in the late ‘90s and early 2000s as a community-minded and “green” neighborhood. It was developed in what used to be the outskirts of town, on the site of an old drive-in movie theater—the charming vintage sign of which still greets visitors at the corner of 36 and Lee Hill Road. The neighborhood features a wide variety of homes, from two-story cottages and Craftsmans, to contemporary single-family, townhomes and condos, all built with sustainability in mind. The high density of the homes, combined with generous shared spaces like the 2.5-acre Holiday Park and community gardens, gives Holiday a true community vibe.

A collection of hotspots have popped up along Broadway, on the edge of the neighborhood, including restaurants and bars, coffee shops, and yoga and fitness studios. A quick trip down Broadway via bike, car or the Skip bus service, takes residents to the Lucky Market or Ideal Market Plazas, with even more great eats and stores, or to Pearl Street, Boulder’s ultimate destination for fine and casual dining and boutique shops. Residents are even given free Eco Passes on RTD (via their HOA), which means complimentary rides further into Boulder, to Denver, or even to the airport.
