Great scale for the area, lovely and simple design, too. What are the odds this one gets built any time soon?

Seems to be some momentum around the Warehouse Park. First the Parks, then the Westrich development right across from this site, and now this.

Curious to see who else starts proposals, I'm extremely optimistic there's going to be more mid-rises, but as always hoping for a high rise to complement the mix.

Now this is a much better 6-storey design!

Ooooo Nice

 

[Glenco]

Looks a lot more “downtownish”

 

[Gronk!]

The site being developed is a parking lot between Carbon Graphics and a shuttered funeral home with a For Lease sign.

I really like the idea of using an adjacent wall to create mini yards in an urban setting. I think it's also great how the back alley units surrounding this park end up being the most desirable, which isn't typical downtown.

One of the best mid rise proposals in a while.

Ian did say stuff was going to start being mentioned in Q1 of 2025...so this is early!

 

[IanO]

Haha. More in the pipeline for sure, but this was a nice early Xmas present. We could see a mostly built out 108 in 2-3 years.

Great to see. Maybe there's an obvious answer to this question, but what's the sudden attraction here for developers? WD Park for sure, but there's plenty of other lots around the park that are not moving. Is The Parks constructions starting the impetus here?

Looks awesome!

Curious why the rooftop isn't used for amenity space though?

Less sudden attraction, more complete lack of anything happening and pent-up demand and hope.

I think Capital Blvd, with its revitalization not so long ago has been ready for this increased demand for quite some time. The park, Park tower, Capital apartments, Norquest, and now lowered interest rates, finally got more developers interested.

Also.... sandwiched between Carona station and a new Valley line station, it's an unbeatable TOD area.

I was part of the Capital Boulevard Steering Committee, 20 years ago, and between the residential projects like this one (+ the old Riley's building, +the Parks + the "more to come") and the amazing looking Norquest expansion, this is what the Committee was hoping for. Took 2 decades to start to see this vision come to fruition, but so satisfying, at least for me. Keep it coming!!
