Bulk Mail Center Heliport

The closure was likely due to a combination of factors, primarily economic and a lack of operational necessity. Helicopter operations are prohibitively expensive for transporting low-priority, high-weight bulk mail. If the heliport was intended for executive transport or emergency services, that need was likely deemed insufficient to justify the cost of maintaining and operating a landing facility. Essentially, the concept was impractical and obsolete, leading to it being abandoned or never fully implemented.

The site is currently an active United States Postal Service (USPS) facility, now known as the Denver Network Distribution Center (NDC). The specific coordinates (39.800301, -104.901001) point to a paved area on the west side of the main building that is now fully integrated into the facility's ground logistics. This area is used for truck and trailer maneuvering and parking. There is no visible trace of a marked helipad or any aviation infrastructure at the location.

The heliport had minimal to no historical significance. Its existence is noted almost exclusively in unofficial, aggregated aviation databases rather than in official FAA records or historical aeronautical charts. It was associated with the United States Postal Service (USPS) Denver Bulk Mail Center (BMC), a large industrial facility designed in the 1970s to sort and process bulk mail. The heliport was likely a planned component of the original facility design that was never used, or was used very rarely. It handled no known significant or scheduled air traffic and was not open to the public.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening this heliport. The operational model of the USPS Network Distribution Center relies exclusively on ground transportation for moving bulk mail. The physical space formerly designated for the heliport is now essential for the facility's trucking logistics. Given the high cost of helicopter operations and the lack of any practical application for one at this facility, the prospect of reopening is effectively zero.
