Over in the Observatory Park neighborhood of Denver is the construction site of 2450 South University Boulevard.  This project is being developed by New York City-based Tessler Developments. The developemnt is located just to the east of the University of Denver and will rise to five floors once complete.

2450 S. University  will include 252 apartment units on levels two through five. The first floor will feature 31,000 square feet of retail space. Two levels of below-grade parking will also be included. The total square footage of the project including the underground parking is 420,000 square feet.

2450 South University will showcase an indoor lap pool, a yoga room, and a fitness room. On the rooftop, a lounge area and a pool will also be constructed.

Denver-based Shears Adkins Rockmore is the architecture firm that designed this project– the same architecture firm that also designed the 24-story Shorenstein development that is slated to begin construction at 1709 Chestnut in the Union Station neighborhood of Denver.

Site work began in the summer of 2015 when existing structures on the property were demolished in advance of excavation work.

Below is a rendering of the project. The developer stated that there is the potential for adjustments to be made to the exterior finishes that are not reflected in the rendering that was provided.
