Back in June, we took an early look at 2560 Welton and provided some very preliminary renderings. As a refresher, this is quite a large project for the already booming Welton corridor; providing 130 apartment units, 15,388 square feet of office space, and 9,266 square foot of retail contained in a 8-story structure.
In this project update, we have some very refined and detailed renderings that give us a better insight to what 2560 Welton will look like. All of these renderings are courtesy of Craine Architecture. One great amenity, as you can see in the renderings below, is the light-rail stop right outside the front door providing residents easy access to Downtown Denver.
The base of the building will follow the neighborhood’s character, featuring a brick facade. Although the material is unknown, white paneling will be used on floors four through eight.
The construction time-frame for this 2560 Welton is still unknown but we will keep you in the loop as soon as we find out more information.
Based on the supplied renderings, it looks like portions of the upper floors will also be brick, of a lightly colored variety.
Nice project… It’s interesting that they put in a multi-level building in the photo on the adjacent block 2600. There is just a simple one story building there right now.
Actually, not so interesting. There has been a project in the works on that block for some time. It would incorporate a renovated Rossonian hotel. See the previous Denver Infill blogpost.

The multi-level building is almost certainly what the same developer- Pallisade- is planning on doing for the Roussonian block. They’re going through the planning process on an eight story building attached to the Roussonian which supposedly is to be managed as a hotel by Sage.
I’m not at all a huge fan of 8 story buildings (They’re in my view from my front yard) but it is the urban core, density is a good thing, and the developer seems to be doing a pretty good job at design IMO.
@Kieron – I admire your attitude here. It’s nice to hear someone that recognizes that there may be some adverse impact of this project to some people, but that overall, a development like this is good in the big picture. I wish more people were as understanding.
I like it, much better than the previous rendering. Fits the character of the neighborhood well.
