A new EVEN Hotel may be coming to the corner of Park Avenue and Blake Street near Coors Field in Downtown Denver.

InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) is planning to construct an EVEN Hotel on an undeveloped parcel at 2250 Blake Street, one block from Coors Field, according to city records. The project’s site development plan was approved earlier this year and on August 28, a building permit application for the project was submitted to the city planning office. The project is still in the pre-development phase as the building permit review and approval process is still in progress and no construction date has yet been announced.

The new EVEN Hotel would join two IHG properties recently added in Downtown Denver: the Kimpton Hotel Born and the Hotel Indigo, both near Denver Union Station.

According to documents on file with the city, the proposed EVEN Hotel would include 153 rooms in an eight-story building. One underground level would contain 24 vehicle parking spaces, with an additional 23 spaces provided in a nearby apartment building’s parking garage through a lease agreement. Access to the underground parking would be via the alley.

The ground floor would contain the hotel lobby, restaurant and bar, a game room, and other building services. The second floor would include meeting rooms and a fitness center, administrative offices, and some hotel rooms. The remaining hotel rooms would be accommodated on floors 3 through 8. As the rendering illustrates, the building’s primary facade along Blake Street would feature extensive use of brick to complement the neighboring historic brick buildings.

Hopefully, our next update post on this project will be to announce the start of construction.
