Good morning, Broncos Country!
News yesterday of the Broncos’ hiring of Daniel Brusilovsky to serve as the franchise’s Chief Technology Officer is the latest evidence that the Broncos are interested in building an entertainment district along with the new stadium.
Brusilovsky, who is coming to the Broncos from the Golden State Warriors’, will oversee all technology services and systems for the organization and lead the club’s technology strategy.
But the reason this is a good indication of entertainment development is that Brusilovsky played a key role in the design, development and opening of the Chase Center and its “Thrive City, “ a dynamic community gathering space created by the Warriors to promote health and wellness.
Although the Broncos have not officially confirmed a new stadium site, there is a lot of evidence pointing toward the Burnham Yard area, a former railroad site east of I-25 and south of Colfax Avenue where the Broncos have recently purchased about $150 million of land.
9News reported last week that Broncos leadership has been speaking to city officials, specifically Denver Water, about buying more land in that vicinity — a strong indicator the team is considering this location for a new stadium.
And with all that land, there’s a good chance Denver is considering revisiting their abandoned plans for an entertainment district surrounding the stadium.
The current stadium lease for Empower Field at Mile High expires in 2031, and President Damani Leech has said the Broncos will decide on new stadium plans soon since construction takes about four years.
A Bay Area native, Brusilovsky also oversaw technology for high-profile events such as the 2025 NBA All-Star Game, NBA Playoffs, NCAA March Madness and the League of Legends World Championship in addition to numerous concerts.
Brusilovsky’s only apparent flaw at this point is his use of “let’s ride” when annoucing coming to Denver.
