Good progress is being made at the Riverview at 1700 Platte Street project site in Denver’s Lower Highland district. Platte Street is a lively, walkable, urban corridor that features late-19th-century brick commercial structures, late-20th-century apartment buildings, and new 21st-century office buildings, all with ground-floor restaurants and shops. The new Riverfront development will add 210,000 square feet of offices and 9,300 square feet of street-level retail to the mix.
In our Update #2 in July, excavation was just getting started. Now, shoring walls support a large hole in the ground where the project’s two levels of underground parking will go. We have a big panorama to share with you today, so click/zoom/scroll to enjoy at full size!
The Nichols/Galvanize 2.0 building was directly behind me as I took this shot looking northeast, with Platte Street on the left and the South Platte River on the right.
