The Orchard

North Westminster Destination

The Orchard refers to a section of north Westminster that is home to the Orchard Town Center and other surrounding retail centers, as well as the St. Anthony North Medical Campus. Just to the south of the medical campus is 250 acres of prime I-25 frontage that is zoned for office and commercial uses.

The Orchard is located in the booming northern Denver metro area that has seen a large population growth, and expects to see more with the addition of an Amazon distribution center in nearby Thornton.
