You know what fixes that? More residents. I disagree that wood framed structures are such catastrophes. I keep hearing this same argument. This stick buildings are going to be the slums of tomorrow! I just don't see a lot of evidence that it's the case. There are a lot of cheaply constructed buildings (those beige monsters a few blocks away spring to mind) that haven't succumbed to the tenements that apparently await us in the future.
While this building may not be particularly inspiring, it's already a pleasant one at street level. It blends into the landscape pretty effectively and it sure doesn't look particularly cheap to me.
Denver is in a really good spot by my estimation. We have a lot of really nice buildings under construction right now. We have a lot of pretty ok buildings. We also have a lot of buildings that are "meh", but that's just fine too.
On that point I massively disagree.

I'm with Enjo on this one. The location is prominent, but not in a good way. It's hemmed in by three urban highways. I definitely think renters with dogs will steer clear of this one.
