We just did an update on the Le Meridien / AC hotel last month, however some exciting milestones have been reached since then. The 21-story hotel project is now up to the street level, and a new tower crane now sits on the site.

Here are two photos showing exactly that. The block between Stout and California Street, along 15th Street, has always been an eye sore; with an entire block of surface parking. This project is a great step in the right direction for eliminating, at least part of, these surface lots. As far as height is concerned, the Le Meridien / AC will be taller than the Embassy Suites (left) but shorter than the Hyatt Regency (right).

If you didn’t catch it in our Go Broncos post, you can clearly see the new tower crane in this shot.
