A Denver insurance company is the second business in recent weeks to announce it will relocate to one of the new buildings under construction in Lower Downtown.
Van Gilder Insurance has signed a lease for 57,000 square feet of office space in 1515 Wynkoop St., a 295,000-square-foot building Hines is developing at the southwest corner of 15th and Wynkoop. Construction of the project will start March 14 and be completed in October 2008.
Last month, Chipotle Mexican Grill said it would relocate its headquarters to 43,000 square feet of office space under construction at 1401 Wynkoop St. The mixed-use project by Opus Northwest will include 300,000 square feet of office space when it’s completed in the fall of 2008.
Other projects announced for LoDo include a 335,000-square-foot, 18-story office tower being developed by Trammell Crow Co. at 1900 16th St. and a 200,000-square-foot office condominium building being developed by Resolute Investments at 18th and Wewatta streets.
