Here's my theory - It's gotta be a lot or lots that only have Lincoln frontage, otherwise, they would probably pick a Broadway moniker. If that assumption is correct, there is only one block that has no Broadway frontage, which is 002-B, and personally, I don't think thats the best fit for a 30-story job. Therefore, I am thinking its on the east side of Lincoln. Looking at those, the one block that stands out from the whole, "significant-addition-to-the-skyline" perspective, is 032-b. Thats my crackpot theory at least.
... except the only parcel facing Lincoln that also has Broadway frontage is the one on Block 003-B.
Anyway, I do remember hearing that when the GSA was shopping around for sites for the new EPA HQ, one of the sites near the top of their list... and had a willing seller... was the vacant parcels owned by Trinity (the church on 18th).
Dikeou, on the other hand, is notorious for letting his land sit.
I thought that was being reconditioned for new retail?
Dammit, it's going on 16th and Lincoln!

ooooh, could be! Junkie and I were around there the other day, and they were definitely remodeling the building, despite the fact that it's a tiny one-story building that deserves to be scraped! But it would make a good sales office.
HOLY CRAP! Another highrise being announced (or at least planned) for downtown! This is awesome that it's NOT one of the towers proposed along 14th...
Secondly,
I tend to agree with the majority about Block 29-b. Makes perfect sense, right smack dab in the middle of the downtown stretch of Lincoln. However, I do see rds's point that the ad is touting this building as a major new skyline enhancement, which would tend to lean towards an 18th-20th St./Ave. area location, near 1999 Broadway...
Regardless, this will be freaking awesome! ANY of those lots will make nice candidates to disappear!

I guess I would rather see something closer to the 20th & Broadway area. This could really be the catalyst for redevelopment over there. We can reserve 16th and Lincoln for future office space.
What?! I go away for a couple of hours and I come back to find that there's not a single new post with information about our new 30 story highrise announced for Denver today??
There are 2 or 3 25-35 story residential towers planned on 14th, plus the 50 story Fourseason's and residence on 14th, and there are the glass house which is going to be a tall residential, and now we have another 30 story residential. Plus we have the 48 story El Jebel residential looking for a bank to finance it.
You boys are sharp! Great find and good job on the research. I love how you already found the website, and have proven that it belongs to this development. Another potential great addition to the city and skyline

My two cents - I hope it is closer to 20th street and the LRT. That intersection is almost completely surrounded by no man's land parking lots and creates a barrier with the neighborhood to the east. Plus there is very little residential in that area of DT.
