This is better work.

N830MH is a huge fan of aviation (light rail too).
I happen to drop off and pickup a friend recently from Sky Harbor. Lots of changes in progress there as well.
DIA/Den is in a multi-year, multi-phase expansion.
First priority was adding an additional 39 gates; that is now completed. That along with other concourse updates currently under way will cost ~$2.1 billion.
DIA is also in process of significant improvements to the terminal. To your points, all check-in and security will eventually be moving up to Level 6. DIA will be acquiring the latest generation of whiz-bang tech (baggage) inspection equipment. Once all this is completed DIA will be at the top for safety, security and efficiency. 2024 will see the first phase of the move to Level 6.
