Office and retail.
LCP Development and Weston Capital recently completed
construction on two buildings at the intersection of West Colfax and Raleigh
Street. The project included the renovation of a five-story, 50,000-square-
foot office building with ground-floor retail, as well as new ground-up con-
struction of a 6,000-square-foot retail building. Starbucks has signed a lease,
as has a landscape architecture firm. Negotiations also are underway with
a national retailer and regional restaurant for the balance of the building.
Apartments by Hines.
Approximately 250 apartments and 7,000 square feet
of retail is planned at 17th Avenue and Raleigh. The seven-story apartment
community is being developed by Hines. On the top floor, residents will
have access to a 2,000- to 3,000-square-foot “sky lounge.”
Vida Senior Living.
Approximately 170 affordable senior apartments are
planned at Perry Street and West Colfax. The four- and seven-story complex
is a collaboration between EnvirFinance Group and the Denver Housing
Authority and an additional 20,000 square feet of commercial space. The
project will be anchored by a 12,000-square-foot neighborhood health clinic
and includes a 5,000-square-foot senior activity center, and rooftop garden-
ing among other amenities.
Sloans has come a long way since 1861, when Thomas M. Sloan, a farmer
working the land, dug a well and woke up the next morning to find – to his
dismay – a growing lake. With one strike of his shovel, Mr. Sloan formed
Denver’s largest lake, and today it is becoming one of the city’s most desir-
able places to reside, especially considering the quality development that is
taking place here.
