Mixed‑use downtown plumbing expertise in a nationally recognized urban village
Belmar is a national model for mixed‑use redevelopment, transforming a declining 1960s regional mall into a thriving downtown for Lakewood with 80+ shops, 20 restaurants, 300,000 square feet of office space and more than 1,200 residences across 22 city blocks. The district's urban design emphasizes walkable streets, plazas and vertically mixed buildings where apartments and condos sit above ground‑floor retail, restaurants, artist studios and offices. Carmody Lake Plumbing understands the unique demands of these stacked, multi‑use buildings and has become a go‑to resource for both residents and small businesses when plumbing problems arise.
Understanding a 22‑block urban village built for walkability and mixed uses
Belmar is the vibrant reinvention of downtown Lakewood, a modern outdoor shopping and dining district that evokes the ambiance of an old town village center with a central plaza ringed by cafes, events and seasonal ice skating. The development covers roughly 100 acres and 22 city blocks, with more than two million square feet of vertically mixed development including around 777,000 square feet of retail, hundreds of thousands of square feet of office space, a cinema, hotel and 1,000+ residential units. Residents live in condos and apartments above shops, in townhomes on quiet internal streets and in buildings like Belmar Plaza Residences that put them right in the middle of the action.
From retail anchors to arts and green space — Belmar is at the center of it all
Belmar residents and visitors share streets with major anchors like Target, Whole Foods Market, Best Buy, Nordstrom Rack, Dick's Sporting Goods, DSW and Century Theaters, all clustered around a central plaza with al fresco dining, concerts and ice‑skating. Just beyond the core blocks, the Lakewood Cultural Center offers a 320‑seat theater and art galleries, while Belmar Park and Heritage Lakewood Belmar Park provide serene lakes, trails and historic buildings for a quick escape into nature and history.
How stacked uses, older infrastructure and high activity levels affect your plumbing
Challenge: Belmar sits on the site of a former regional mall and older commercial uses (including dry cleaners and automotive service shops), where environmental issues were mitigated as part of the redevelopment.
Impact on Plumbing: Redevelopment introduced modern infrastructure, but building‑level plumbing still faces typical wear from constant residential and commercial use, and some underground utilities may run through complex brownfield‑redevelopment layouts.
Our Solution: We rely on detailed mapping, camera inspections and careful locating to diagnose issues, then design repairs and replacements that respect the site's dense utility environment and current codes.
Challenge: Belmar hosts events, concerts, weekly farmers markets and draws shoppers from across the region, creating high usage of restrooms, kitchens and fixtures in both businesses and nearby homes.
Impact on Plumbing: High fixture turnover increases wear on valves, traps and drains; restaurant and bar operations produce grease and debris that can clog lines; and residential units often see heavy everyday use.
Our Solution: We set up preventive maintenance schedules for businesses, perform regular drain cleaning, and upgrade fixtures and water heaters in residential units to match the real‑world demand.

Specialized plumbing solutions for downtown Lakewood's diverse housing stock
Serving a downtown that rose from a dead mall
Belmar is often cited as a prototype for how dead and dying malls can be redeveloped: an aging enclosed mall with high vacancy was transformed into a mixed‑use downtown that now houses more than 2,000 residents and generates roughly $200 million a year in retail sales. The redevelopment added nine acres of urban parks and plazas, reconnecting the site to surrounding neighborhoods like Belmar Park, South Alameda and Eiber, and giving Lakewood the downtown it previously lacked. Carmody Lake Plumbing has supported this transformation by providing reliable plumbing to new and existing buildings as Belmar's residences, restaurants and shops have filled in.
We handle all compliance for downtown Lakewood projects
Plumbing work in Belmar must comply with City of Lakewood building codes and Jefferson County regulations, and mixed‑use buildings often involve additional oversight from property managers, HOAs and corporate tenants.
