Construction of Greystar’s 13-story multifamily project, located at 2039 19th St. in Denver’s Union Station neighborhood, has begun. The project sits on one of the last remaining Union Station lots and consists of 198 units split into distinct brick- and metal-clad forms.
Shaw Construction is the general contractor. Shears Atkins Rockmore (SAR) is the architect and Norris Design in the landscape architect.
According to the construction permit, the 198 units will be made up of 177 studios, 4 one-bedroom units, and 17 co-living units ranging between three and four-bedroom floor plans. The residential development will incorporate numerous common gathering spaces, including street-facing exterior terraces at three different levels, an active lobby featuring a fireplace hearth, social seating stair, fitness + yoga studio, co-working space, and laundry lounge.
According to SAR, the project also takes advantage of its obligation to complete the existing partial hammerhead at the end of 19th St, providing a public plaza with built-in seating and shade trees which serves as an extension of the active lobby.
As the project exists in the heavily pedestrian- and transit-oriented Commons neighborhood within easy walking distance of Union Station, only 13 surface level parking spaces will be provided.
