Pandemic-Delayed Residential Complex Slated for Construction in Denver

Plans have been approved for the construction of a very large and modern multifamily complex set to go up in downtown Denver.

The project, to be called Evolve Towers, will see construction at 2288 Champa Street and is expected to include some 331 residential units in a two-tower configuration surrounding an outdoor courtyard and swimming pool.

To be developed by the Denver-based Ubuntu Partners Real Estate, the complex will go up in a part of the city that has seen a certain amount of new office and apartment construction in recent years.

But the scale of the Champa Street project, with the two towers topping out at 18 stories, and a five-story podium, is what has generated the most attention. The project also includes some 6,000 square feet of retail space.

Designed by the Denver-based Oz Architecture and Sanzpont Arquitectura of Barcelona, the look of the project will, according to Ubuntu, include units embodying a “European design philosophy with smartly designed, highly efficient living spaces.”
​
Originally proposed nearly two years ago, the project, which has just received site development approval from the City of Denver, was delayed due to the onset of the Covid 19 pandemic.
