I have too have encountered uncomfortable experience at the Olde Town Light Rail Station. However, the majority of my use has been mostly pleasant and certainly very utile. I never drive to the airport for my own travel anymore. I go to downtown Denver for the restaurants the Performing Arts Center the Denver Civic Center and other services that are available via the light rail and the free 16th Street Mall Shuttle. The covered lighted parking garage in Olde Town has proven safe and secure.
If Mr. Albertsen was expecting Nirvana from any public transportation, then his sights were set too high. Our society is made up of a broad spectrum of humans and we will not avoid them all regardless of our attempts to do so. If he is so offended by some of our community so unlike him, he should go to the two other stations in Arvada at Kipling and at Ward. Doing away with the system as it stands would be throwing out the baby with the bath water. Hooray for Olde Town and the Light Rail.
