We already covered this briefly on the day of the groundbreaking but we wanted to share the most recent Denver Business Journal Article titled "Denver breaks ground on 14th Street improvements".
What does this mean for downtown Denver condo and loft residents? It means that Denver condo and loft residents will soon have a brand new pedestrian friendly corridor filled with trees, outdoor seating for restaurants, shops, outdoor art, and bicycle friendly racks and lanes. This is going to be a very exciting addition to the Denver lifestlye.
Of course for the short term it's an issue of construction. Traffic down the 14th Street Corridor (which is being called Denver's Ambassador Street) will have a view of the heavy equipment digging up the street scape and expanding it out for all these great improvements. The project is currently working in front of the Four Seasons Denver, most likely because the new hotel wants the construction completed as soon as possible so they can enjoy the new improvements. Of course the Four Seasons, which also just recently held it's opening ceremony for both the hotel and the residences for sale, probably doesn't want the construction to give the impression that the Four Seasons itself is still under construction. It's not and the luxury residences are now available for immediate sale and occupancy. Four Seasons residences would get to enjoy all the amenities of the Four Seasons itself including the spa, fitness center, and of course in building restaurants and amenities.
Construction from this point should spread down 14th street. One other venue that is probably anticipating a great benefit from the Ambassador Street improvements would be SPIRE. SPIRE already benefits from a reputation as a car optional and bicycle friendly LEED® certified building. The 14th street improvements will only go farther to make this location bicycle and pedestrian friendly.
