Colorado Commons was developed by Barker Pacific Group, Inc. (BPG) as a public-private venture with the City of Monrovia Redevelopment Agency. The ground-up project consists of 68 residential units and 4 commercial units and was completed in the spring of 2008.

A key part of the rental strategy was a rent-to-own program that applies a portion of a tenant's rent toward the future purchase of the unit. BPG sold the units in 2015.
