Exploring What’s Next for the Mile High City’s Urban Core: Creating Dynamic Workplaces and Vibrant Communities Where People Want to Live, Work and Thrive

What You’ll Learn From CRE Leaders At This Event:

• With downtown Denver asking rents hitting $45/SF — and LoDo and RiNo at $48/SF despite a 40.8% availability rate — which office assets are still commanding premium pricing, and what features set them apart?
• With $416M in office deals closing in Q1 2025, how are investors recalibrating their strategies around distressed assets and what long-term impact will this have on downtown’s vibrancy?
• With 23.6M SF of downtown office space identified as viable for future residential conversion, how can developers, landlords and civic leaders meaningfully integrate housing, retail, and public space into a livable downtown ecosystem?
• With so many projects vying for $570M in revitalization funding through Denver’s redevelopment program, what public realm investments are most urgently needed to improve safety, vibrancy, and inclusivity downtown?
• With pedestrian foot traffic still 18% below pre-pandemic levels on 16th Street and transit ridership down 38% from pre-pandemic levels, what infrastructure and mobility improvements are most essential to making downtown accessible and inviting?
