When we visited Eviva Cherokee back in August, we mentioned that the glass facade had started to go up. As you would probably expect, the glass facade keeps making its way up the building. There are also a number of new elements we haven’t seen that we will cover in this update.
One of the first noticeable changes is the parking podium. The grey concrete and brick has been smoothed out and treated. Just like we see in Central Downtown, the blank walls face surface or development-ready lots.
The base along Cherokee Street is also coming together nicely. If you look closely in the first photo, you can see that brickwork is starting to go in for the first five-stories.
Finally, a view from 12th and Bannock. In the foreground, the Kirkland Museum is coming along nicely.
That’s not all! Today, we have a special treat for you. Here are some aerials, giving you a better perspective of this project.
Eviva Cherokee makes a great impact in the Golden Triangle neighborhood. Just remember, this used to be a surface parking lot.
This LEED-Gold project is expected to be finished early next year.
I would like to see all of the parking lots in the Golden Triangle neighborhood replaced with buildings of comparable size. Golden Triangle could become Denver’s densest neighborhood until Arapahoe Square is completely build out.
