PORTEOS, adjacent to the Denver International Airport, initially received little notice from the Denver industrial real estate community. Now it enjoys national attention, and it’s getting noticed by big brand retailers as many brokers begin to re-evaluate how far a distance is “too far” from the Interstate 70 corridor.

We weren’t just airborne yesterday—time flies when you’re having fun!
Southwest has been in LUV with our Customers from the very beginning. Therefore, it’s fitting that we began service to San Antonio and Houston from Love Field in Dallas on June 18, 1971. As our Company and Customers grew, our LUV grew too! With Flight Attendants serving “Love Bites” on our planes and determined Employees issuing tickets from our “Love Machines,” we changed the face of the airline industry throughout the 1970s. Then in 1977, our stock was listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “LUV.” Over the ensuing years, our LUV has spread from coast-to-coast and border-to-border thanks to our hardworking Employees and their LUV for Customer Service. Our purpose – to connect People to what’s important in their lives through friendly, reliable, and low-cost air travel.
