Back in 2002, the site at the corner of Colfax and Osage in Downtown Denver’s La Alma/Lincoln Park district was rezoned to allow for a multi-family residential project to be called the Wellington Apartments. Since then, however, nothing has happened…until now.
An active development case is currently under review with the city for the Osage Apartments project at the same site. The project, proposed to include 288 rental units in a four story building, is being developed by Carmel Partners. Construction may be underway by late summer.
Good to see this project finally moving forward. The site’s proximity to the Colfax at Auraria light rail station makes it a particularly good development site. I’ll try to round up a rendering.
Theres also a project coming for 12th and Osage. An existing warehouse will be demolished to make way for apartments as well.
Just to add to my last post, the new project at 12th and Osage is called Osage Courts.
I was very disappointed when the Vulcan warehouse building was demolished, it would have made a great commercial hub for that somewhat dead area. I'm really glad that desolate little stretch of Colfax will get some much-needed attention and population.
