In case you were wondering where your DenverInfill blogger has been the past week or so, I’ve been in London, soaking up all the wonderful urbanity that city has to offer. In the next few days, I’ll post a few observations about London and some of the things we could/should be doing to make the city on the Platte a bit more like the city on the Thames.
For now, until I have a chance to get caught up on the Downtown Denver infill scene, I’ll leave you with two quickies… the old industrial buildings on the 3200 block of Blake are being demolished to make way for the new Rue 32 project in the Ballpark neighborhood, and say bye-bye to the North Broadway Tower proposal (more on that next time).

Actually I am kind of glad the North Broadway tower is going to Philly. I hope they love the borrowed Waikiki beach feel…I wouldnt have wanted that in Denver. Besides, the developer Gino sounded like a hoodlum when I talked to him. Go back to Philly and let’s get a serious professional developer to build another condo tower! Thanks!

I agree with the junkie, the design of that tower was seriously mismatched with Denver. Glad to see it find a new home, but I don’t think Philly deserves something that bland either.
