It’s time to wrap up ‘Cherry Creek week’ where we have visited new apartment, condo, and office developments. All of these projects are bringing more people to live and work in Cherry Creek helping make it a great, thriving, urban district. Now you might be asking, where are the visitors going to stay? Fear not, a new hotel is underway!
245 Columbine has gone through many changes since we first announced the project back in May 2013. It first started as a 7-story, 90,000 square foot office building. Then it went through a big design change with ground floor retail, and a residential component.
Now, 245 Columbine has broken ground as a 7-story, 155 room botique hotel run by Sage Hospitality. The hotel will feature 5,900 square feet of ground floor retail, a rooftop pool deck, and a below-grade, speakeasy style bar. Designed by JG Johnson Architects, here are some updated renderings courtesy of BMC Investments.
As a refresher, an abandoned post office stood on the 245 Columbine site leaving quite the eyesore. Here are a couple photos of the building back in 2013 when it still stood on the site.
Since then, the old post office has been torn down and excavation is now underway for the two floors of underground parking. This is what the project site looked like last weekend.
The density going up in the Cherry Creek neighborhood, all the way up to Colorado Boulevard, is incredible. Our ‘Cherry Creek week’ only covered a portion of the projects going up in the area which means there will be another week coming up soon! Stay tuned!
For Cherry Creek week, what about The Residences at Fillmore Plaza?
