The DTC was established in the early 1970s, and cable companies United Cablevision, United Artists Cable, and later AT&T Broadband, all had their start in, and still have major infrastructure around, the Denver Tech Center. In the Colorado area, Bill Daniels and John C. Malone were early adopters who shepherded many standards in cable technology still used today.
The Denver Tech Center was designed by Architect/Planner Carl A. Worthington. In the early 1970s, investors asked Carl A. Worthington to complete a conceptual Master Plan along a new fiber optic line South of Downtown Denver. The Master Plan included an original 40 acre plan as well as potential for an 800 acre development. The plan has since grown to 850 acres and over 25 million square feet of buildings have been completed. The Denver Tech Center was a major reason for Denver Regional Council of Governments's expansion of the T-REX expansion into the Denver Technological Center.
