In September 2026, developer Pagewest began demolishing existing retail and office buildings on Bryant Street in LoHi to prepare for a new residential development. The project will bring 300 new apartments to the neighborhood near Speer Boulevard and 29th Avenue.
Why it matters
This construction marks a significant transition in land use for the Denver neighborhood, replacing local commercial space with high-density housing. The project follows a four-year effort by the developer to assemble the 1.5-acre property.
Pagewest purchased the 1.5-acre plot for $8.5 million in October 2025. The upcoming structure is planned to reach 7 stories and house 300 apartment units.
