As we all know, Uptown is riddled with surface lots that hurt the urban fabric of this great neighborhood. But there’s good news! Two more surface lots have bit the dust as two new projects are just getting underway. Instead of posting two separate first updates, let’s put them together in a single infilltastic post.
Our first stop will be at the Colorado Health Foundation Headquarters, located at 18th Avenue and Pennsylvania Street. This project is a three-story, 32,500 square foot office building. For a refresher, here is a rendering.
Excavation and foundation work for the underground parking is currently underway.
Next up is the 5280 Senior Residences, located just down the street at 16th Avenue and Pennsylvania Street. This is a 99-unit, senior housing project that will rise a total of six-stories. While we are tracking down an official rendering, here is the sign on the project fence.
As you can clearly see, another surface parking lot bites the dust!
That’s it for Uptown, stay tuned for much more infill this week!
I believe these are actually at Penn & 16th/18th…
You are correct! Thanks for catching that! 🙂
