Dove Valley blends sports, schools and commuter convenience
Dove Valley, although not widely known to all Denver-area residents, is home to the Denver Broncos' headquarters and training facility. Jane Knauf, a Realtor in the Denver area with Metro Home Finder, Inc., notes that the community is considered part of Englewood and Centennial. She says that nearby amenities have contributed to Dove Valley's growth. "It's close to major transits. You're right there on E-470, and you're a quick jaunt to Interstate 25. Plus, it's in Cherry Creek School District, which is one of the best in the state," Knauf says. "It's also close to major shopping. It has a lot of amenities that are close by." Dove Valley was officially recognized as a Census Designated Place in 2010. Residents may occasionally hear overhead planes from the Centennial Airport. Industrial properties occupy a significant portion of the area surrounding the airport. The Broncos' training facility was recently renamed Broncos Park Powered by CommonSpirit.
