The corner of 17th and Central in Downtown Denver’s hot Highland district may be getting its long-awaited infill project finally. Originally the location for the second phase of the Highland Crossing project, the half-block site has remained partially undeveloped and partially occupied by an old small commercial building, as the second phase never materialized. The first phase of Highland Crossing sits at the top of the hill at 17th and Boulder, and was completed in 2002.

Recently, the old commercial building at the corner was demolished. Here’s a photo:

I have some additional research to do before I can post what the plans are for this site, but hopefully I’ll have something to report in the near future.
