Easy Like Sunday Morning

local - belonging or relating to a particular area or neighborhood, typically exclusively so.

With her rent doubling owner Susan Cordova will soon pack up her antiques inside Red Door Antique's in the Berkeley neighborhood and move on to the next chapter in her life. She believes she's the last of four antique shops that have existed along Tennyson Street. Nicely written, AMY DIPIERRO has the story at BusinessDen.

So sad to see many Denver neighborhoods lose their old quaintness and character.

H/T to Ryan Dravitz for providing the link to the new Wizards Chest site which chronicles their pending move to 451 Broadway from Cherry Creek. It's a very cool site that gives regular photo updates on their "Progress Diary."

Justin at Denver Urban Review has a terrific interview with Kyle Zeppelin, Zeppelin Development, developer of Taxi, The Source etc. It really is a must-read.

I don't think Berkeley has lost any character. Tennyson is more vibrant now than it probably has been since streetcars ran up the street. It's all small business and independents too.

Is it just me, or can you see that hotel in some futuristic-based movie?

Is the hotel called the Stache yet? Because it's going to be called that.

I like it though.

The whole vibe of the Airport Westin reminds me of the Woody Allen movie "Sleeper" which was filmed in the Denver area.

Here's some shots of the sleeper house!

That's because they're all placeholders and what you'll end up seeing will be something like the Spire or what's proposed for Block 162. This isn't anything more then a though exercise at this point and what, if anything, that ends up being built will be radically different, aka actually economic.

Yeesh.

The southwest corner of Welton and Park Ave. is fenced off, so it looks like another chunk of the sea of parking lots is disappearing. That was the site of a 12-story apartment, right?

Also, there is construction fencing up around two spots on 10th and Acoma. Urban Roots and the abandoned house on the northeast corner and the daycare on the southeast corner. Anyone know what is going on there?

http://www.9news.com/story/homepage/2015...ruct-central-denver-rec-center/75067400/


Also nice update by Denver Urban Review. Can you imagine what our skyline is going to look like late spring with all these cranes up for all these towers rising up at once!
