Downtown's Real Estate Roller Coaster, New Shuttles to Red Rocks, and a Sweaty Weekend at the Federal Theatre
Description
A major commercial real estate company is buying up buildings in downtown Denver and wants to convert the empty offices into housing, but the mysterious landowner is standing in the way. And what does the owner of Lakeside Amusement Park have to do with the mayor’s big plan to revitalize the city’s urban core? Then, RTD has committed almost $1 million to pilot a shuttle service to Red Rocks, but it won’t be serving concert goers. Host Bree Davies and producer Paul Karolyi are talking about these big stories on development and transit, plus a listener question about Clerk and Recorder Paul López’s delinquent property tax payments.
Bree spoke with Paul López on Monday’s show about his beef with the mayor’s proposed budget cuts. Paul mentioned CBRE’s recent analysis of downtown real estate and Evan Makovsky’s recent deal to lease space on 16th St. to Green Spaces with help from the Downtown Development Authority.
