Len Goldberg will break ground Thursday on the first condominium project under Denver’s Main Street zoning plan.
The Blueprint project on East Colfax Avenue at Madison Street has 39 condominiums priced from around $150,000 to $400,000. The building, expected to be completed next summer, will have ground-floor retail, perhaps a market.
The building will provide a driver, a concierge and dog-walking services. Goldberg also plans to give Vespa scooters to condo buyers.
“I’m going to try to bring more of a New York-style of living with some of the amenities I’m offering,” said Goldberg, head of Place LLC.
The Main Street plan covers properties along Colfax from Sherman to Albion streets. It is designed to encourage developers to place parking lots behind developments and requires storefronts to be along the sidewalk and have a certain amount of window space.
“I’ve always liked the diverse nature of Colfax,” Goldberg said. “There’s good and bad, but I just felt change would come sooner rather than later.”
