9NEWS reporter Lauren Scafidi talks about the new space on Colfax in Aurora.
Located on East Colfax Avenue, the shopping center is home to 107 businesses, mostly Hispanic-owned. Vendors sell clothing, shoes, trading cards, jewelry, candy, and accessories. La Plaza Colorado also offers tax services and has hair and nail studios.
“The entrepreneurial spirit that is here is immense,” McMurrain said. “Aurora is an economic powerhouse and I feel like La Plaza is a testament to that.” “The amount of job applications from new migrants coming in is incredible,” McMurrain said. La Plaza Colorado has been a long time coming, after its owner, Doug McMurrain, bought the old Super K in 2017.
