Broomfield parcel near Rocky Mountain Metro Airport sold for $6M

BROOMFIELD — A nearly 13-acre parcel of vacant Broomfield land just southwest of the Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport and adjacent to the office of Brocade Communications Systems LLC was recently sold by the firm to a Maryland-based developer for $6.25 million.

Broomfield County property records show the parcel on Brocade Parkway traded in late April to Simms Ventures LLC, an affiliate of St. Johns Properties.

Locally, St. Johns developed Walnut Creek Business Park in Westminster.

The developer did not respond to questions about what it plans to do with the Broomfield property.

Brocade, a subsidiary of Broadcom Inc., is a data storage network technology firm. It is unclear how and if the company was using the land bought by St. Johns. The company did not respond to requests for comment.
