My name is John Glenn, and I am a licensed architect with more than 25 years of experience in transit-oriented development (TOD), urban infill, affordable and market-rate housing, nonprofit projects, and community advocacy. I am deeply committed to the work of shaping cities that are more connected, livable, and equitable.

​

Architects bring a unique perspective to problem-solving because we understand how people experience places and communities in their daily lives. Our work requires balancing vision with practicality, bringing together diverse stakeholders, and creating solutions that improve people’s lives.

​

Throughout my career, I have helped design and deliver thousands of housing units across the country. Contributing to the creation of homes—and, in some small way, the memories, stability, and opportunity those homes make possible—has been one of the most meaningful parts of my professional life.

​

As a member of the RTD Board, I will bring the same leadership approach that has guided my career: listening, collaborating, solving problems, and focusing on long-term results. RTD needs leadership that understands how transportation, housing, and economic opportunity are interconnected in building stronger communities.

​

With your support, I will work to ensure RTD remains accessible, reliable, and responsive to the needs of everyone who depends on transit.
