When we are asked what neighborhood is an absolute favorite, both by all of us at New Era Realty and by our clients it is most certainly the Lower Highlands (LoHi)!
Looking for the best of Denver dining, the best new restaurants, the patios serving the best of Denver cuisine... that's LoHi.
Looking for the most bike friendly, pedestrian friendly, even people friendly (really, everyone here just seems nice... I think it is because of all the fun they are having) neighborhood in Denver... that's LoHi!
And if you are looking for the neighborhood offering the best variety in real estate options.. from historic homes to modern and cool condos.... well that's LoHi too!
John Stegner, Co-Owner / Broker of New Era Realty shared this about the amazing LoHi Neighborhood.
Lo-Hi is literally exploding with new constructions townhome, loft and condo projects popping up everywhere. I have watched the price per square foot on these projects climb month over month over during the last year. I think that the new retail and restaurants are part of the draw to the area for buyers. The walkability score keeps increasing as well. It is a neighborhood where you see residence riding b-cycles, walking home with their dry cleaning, congregating on the roof top deck at Vita, or standing in line at Little Man Ice Cream. Because of this, people get to know each other unlike many neighborhoods in the city.”
“Not long ago, it was the Highlands that was the fastest appreciating neighborhood in Denver. This was driven mostly by single family homes being purchased and improved. Lo-Hi may turn out to be the fastest appreciating area in 2011 and this instead will be driven the townhome, loft and condo market. People who are attracted to Lo-Hi really want to be close to the action and amenities. They also seem to want the simple lifestyle that a loft or condo offers. The theme is active people who want to be able to go have fun at the drop of the hat. Maybe go kayaking at confluence park and then walk past the grocery store on the way home or stop at one of the eateries for a quick bite. Maybe fuel up before walking to see a Nuggets, Rockies or Bronco’s games.”
“The extension of the 16th street shuttle to Riverfront Park is also going to improve access to downtown. Once completed, Lo-Hi will offer a car free lifestyle for people who work in the city center.”And today there are three amazing new LoHi projects available that we wanted to spotlight this week. Here are the details:

With a special focus on design for the future homeowners of Tejon34 and the LoHi neighborhood this project's Developer/Architect met with local community groups in a year long design process gathering the best ideas for design, function, and building architecture.
