History
The city is named for the Greenwood Ranch. The area was developed during the 1860s when settlers came from the East and Midwest looking for gold. By the early 1900s, it had become a farming community but did not incorporate until 1950. Starting in the 1970s, Greenwood Village grew rapidly with the development of the Denver Technological Center. Mayor Freda Poundstone resisted efforts by neighboring Denver to annex more land for the Tech Center, which resulted in the 1974 Poundstone Amendment. This effectively froze Denver's boundaries in place and allowed Greenwood Village to annex prime properties along the I-25 corridor. This in turn raised objections from residents of unincorporated Arapahoe County, who were losing their tax base as a result, and led to the incorporation of Centennial in 2001. Now as of 2010 Greenwood Village is itself hemmed in by Centennial's boundaries, and has had three rare cases of deannexation – in 1985, 2011, and 2024.
