1245 E Colfax Avenue A New Standard for Urban Micro-Living in Denver 1245 E Colfax is a fully entitled, permit-ready mixed-use development designed for modern urban living along one of Denver’s most iconic corridors. The project delivers 144 thoughtfully designed micro-apartments and approximately 6,000 square feet of neighborhood-serving retail, combining new construction with adaptive reuse to create an activated, walkable residential environment. This is a shovel-ready infill opportunity with all major entitlement risk removed and a clear path to delivery. ________________________________________ Designed for How People Actually Live 1245 E Colfax was conceived around efficiency, flexibility, and lifestyle — not excess. The micro-unit format allows residents to live simply while still enjoying high-quality finishes and shared amenities that extend their living space beyond the unit. Interior residences feature: • Contemporary kitchens with full-size appliances • In-unit laundry • High ceilings and large windows • Clean, durable finishes designed for urban renters The result is housing that is efficient without feeling compromised. ________________________________________ Lafayette Building | New Construction The Lafayette Building anchors the project with 95 newly constructed micro-apartments arranged over five residential levels plus a rooftop amenity deck. Key Highlights • Modern micro-unit layouts • Exterior walk-up units along Lafayette Street • Ground-floor retail activating the street frontage Resident Amenities Purpose-built spaces that support work, connection, and downtime: • Co-working space and podcast studio • Multiple resident lounges • Outdoor courtyard • Rooftop amenity patio with city views These shared spaces are designed to replace square footage inside the unit, creating a stronger sense of community and livability. ________________________________________ Colfax Building | Adaptive Reuse The Colfax Building repositions an existing 1962 office structure into 49 micro-apartments with activated retail frontage along Colfax Avenue. Features • Change-of-occupancy renovation • Ground-floor retail including existing and new spaces • Fitness center and secure bike storage • Direct engagement with Colfax’s pedestrian activity By blending adaptive reuse with new construction, the project delivers character, efficiency, and cost discipline while preserving the rhythm of the corridor. ________________________________________ Street-Level Activation & Retail Approximately 6,000 square feet of retail is integrated across both buildings, creating an active pedestrian experience along Colfax and Lafayette. Retail spaces are sized and positioned to support: • Coffee and neighborhood food uses • Daily-needs retail • Services that benefit both residents and the surrounding community This retail component strengthens the project’s long-term durability and neighborhood integration. ________________________________________ Mobility-Forward by Design 1245 E Colfax prioritizes non-automotive mobility while still providing necessary parking. • Shared structured and surface parking • ADA-compliant and EV-ready stalls • Extensive secure bike parking (interior and exterior) • Transit-oriented Colfax corridor location This approach aligns with Denver’s evolving mobility patterns and renter preferences. ________________________________________ A Rare Shovel-Ready Opportunity With entitlements secured, designs completed, and permits ready, 1245 E Colfax offers a rare opportunity to deliver high-demand urban housing without prolonged pre-development risk. The project is positioned to capitalize on: • Continued demand for smaller, efficient urban units • Strong fundamentals along the Colfax corridor • Adaptive reuse combined with new construction efficiency 1245 E Colfax is not speculative — it is ready.
