Construction activities at the Industry Denver Apartments site have begun.

To recap from our initial post on this project, Industry Denver Apartments is a nine-story project that will feature 274 apartments on six floors atop a three-level parking structure containing 349 spaces for automobiles and 88 spaces for bicycles. On the ground floor, the residential lobby, a fitness center, leasing office, and three townhomes will wrap the parking on the sides facing Brighton Boulevard and the historic Industry Denver office building.

The Industry Denver Apartments project is part of the larger Industry Denver development that includes 120,000 square feet of office space in a two-phase renovation/adaptive reuse of a 1939 produce warehouse, and 72,000 square feet of office space plus a 300-car parking garage in a recently completed new-construction third phase. We published this conceptual master plan rendering (courtesy of Industry Denver) at DenverUrbanism in 2014, but it may be helpful to show it here to illustrate the entire Industry Denver development.
