PROJECT INTRODUCTION Summary This proposed project, located at 2136 Lawrence Street in the Arapahoe Square district of Denver, is a 34-story building with 441 residential units and street level

3 PROJECT INTRODUCTION Summary This proposed project, located at 2136 Lawrence Street in the Arapahoe Square district of Denver, is a 34-story building with 441 residential units and street level office/retail space. The site is situated midblock, measures 225 by 125, and is served by a 16 alley. To reflect the Design Guidelines and Zoning parameters for Arapahoe Square, the building fronts Lawrence Street at the lower pedestrian levels with active commercial and amenity spaces located in front of the structured parking. At the sixth level, the mass of the building steps back ten feet in accordance with the Design Standards & Guidelines. The proposed building consists of 28 floors of studio, 1-bedroom and 3-bedroom units over a 5-level podium of amenity and commercial spaces. The above ground parking structure containing 278 parking spaces is located behind the amenity spaces and will not be visible on the Lawrence street façade. Height of the ground level space is 22, level 2 to 4 amenity levels are 14-0, and the residential levels are at 9-8, for approximately 362 total building height, with parapets included. The typical residential floor is comprised of 16 units, 11 of which are studios at 360 sq. ft. in size. Three 1-bedroom units per floor measure 560 sq. ft., while two other 3-bedroom variations measures 1,125 sq. ft. Building Character Kenect Denver is intended to be an integrated part of the community and in both design and function. The building massing is design as a gradually scaled and simple composition of integrated forms that responds to urban/environmental orientations and the public realm. The ground level will be an open plan lobby that will accommodate both retail and social functions in parallel with the residential entry. Street activity will be welcomed with outdoor dining areas and expanded sidewalk at the north side of the site. Lining the parking garage will be double height amenity and co-working spaces which will be broken down from a massing perspective into an articulated series of bays that will relate to the surrounding character of the adjacent neighborhood. A full amenity deck will ground the tower at level 6 and the architecture of the tower will be designed as a complimentary composition of a fully glazed bar along the north side and a more solid punched window expression at the south.
