Denver, like the rest of the nation’s grand cities, is undergoing a building boom of its own.

According to this developer, a 100 story building is in the works! Maybe this is it.

Great to see a tower of this magnitude to secure Denver on the map.

It’s also great to see Denver on Yimby.

A website now! How official does this make it?

I think the website is marketing the site. I would put its credibility at the same level as that of the “Hudson Spire” which was advertised in NYC before BIG designed The Sprial for that particular site.

seems this is for real. A legitimate proposal has been submitted to the city. Also, the rendering is featured on the developer’s website.

„ Greystar has proposed a new residential tower that will rise 47 stories, filling in a surface parking lot smack in the middle of Downtown Denver. A concept plan was filed with the city on February 8 and is still under review. At 574 feet, the new tower will still make a nice mark on the skyline. Here are a few massing models we drafted in Google Earth showing the building from the Golden Triangle, Auraria, and Uptown.“
