The SugarCube building at 16th and Blake in the heart of Denver’s Lower Downtown is officially under construction. The asphalt parking lot was dug up and hauled away. Downtowns are about people and buildings and pleasant public spaces, not automobiles and pavement. A great day for Downtown Denver!

The project is being developed by Urban Villages, LLC and features office, retail, and upscale apartments in a 10-story building.
