But I don't exactly want to displace a large building project that's already planned. They said it could be a part of a mixed-use building, which I think would be cool. I think one place it could really work is right here, across from the Colorado Tower. It's right in the heart of downtown, right by Congress, it's highly-accessible via public transportation and walking, close to the lake. I think it's perfect.
WOW!! I forgot how open/empty that area looked before the Hyatt Place, Whitley and the Marriott!
