The 802,000 sf property, purchased by Grand Peaks in June, sits on the prominent site of the former La Loma Mexican restaurant, which several years ago relocated to Denver’s Central Business District. The 26th and Alcott project is representative of shifting market dynamics that are drawing more renters out of the urban core of Denver and into lower-density neighborhoods that still offer the convenience and ambiance of city living.
While offering much-needed density, this project is designed to create an appropriate and engaging street level experience that is consistent with the context of the neighborhood. For example, a 568 underground parking structure is surrounded by ground-level townhomes, creating a pedestrian-friendly base for the apartment tower, which is designed with several setbacks to protect viewsheds and add visual interest. Distinguishing features of the community include a third-floor amenity deck with an outdoor pool, fitness area, yoga studio, media and game rooms, a club room and two courtyards. A top-floor amenity offers sweeping views of the Rocky Mountains. Units will include high-end appliances and spacious living areas. Inspired by the work of 20th Century Dutch abstractionist painter Piet Mondrian, the design is clean, modern and sophisticated.
Scheduled for completion in April of 2024, 26th and Alcott will offer a mix of studio, one, and two bedroom units.
