Baker West features six remarkably designed townhouses, carefully constructed in a fantastic location - walking distance from both the Santa Fe Arts District and the shops and restaurants on South Broadway. These are not slot homes. That's so important that it bears repeating. These are not slot homes. The finishes far exceed anything else you'll see in this price range.

The rarest kind of residence is about to hit the market in Denver: less-expensive condos around the newly redeveloped Union Station area.

And you only have to win a lottery to buy one.

The condos in question are on prime real estate as part of a new building, The Coloradan, overlooking the city’s main transit hub. There are 33 of them in total, and they’re set aside for people making certain incomes.

“Short and simple, I would say, it’s the right thing to do. When we set out to build The Coloradan, we viewed it as an inclusive community,” said Brad Arnold, the building’s vice president of sales and marketing.

Demand is likely to be very high, so the building’s owner and management will hold “unbiased, random” lotteries on June 19 to…

A plan to make Denver neighborhoods safer is finally being put into action. 

Denver Public Works will finally install neighborhood traffic circles at three intersections on West 35th Avenue this July, three years after plans were first drawn up.

This design is part of DPW’s plan to make 35th a “neighborhood bikeway” with calmer traffic. The traffic circles slow motorists at intersections but still allow cyclists to proceed without coming to a stop.

The traffic circles will consist of six-inch-high rubberized curbs with yellow reflective strips at Julian, Newton, and Raleigh streets. Functionally, they’re like little roundabouts, with drivers turning left taking the “long way” around the circle.

Currently on 35th at Newton and Raleigh,…

If you have an underutilized closet, consider turning it into your own dry bar.

A dry bar does not have a sink or require plumbing, like a wet bar, so you can install one easily if you know the basics of putting in cabinetry and counter tops. Whether you choose to build your own custom pieces or purchase the parts you need, converting a closet into a dry bar can make your house feel homier.

Here are a couple steps to follow courtesy of Hunker, followed by a sick Pinterest board we created to spark your inspiration. 

1) Choose your closet. Shallow closets with two doors make better dry bars because you will have more room.

2) Decide if you want to keep the doors on your closet to hide the bar. If you decide to…

Slack is looking for 550 full time employees, and thinks Denver might be the place to be. 

And Denver doesn't want to let this opportunity from a tech giant pass. Colorado may be cutting Slack Technologies some "slack," in the form of more than $10 million in tax incentives as the cloud messaging app company considers opening its second headquarters in the Denver metro area.

The San Francisco-based firm may be following in the footsteps of other California tech companies who are moving east to Denver.

And of course there's that other tech giant whose highly-publicized search for a second headquarters has set off a nationwide scramble to lure it with tax incentives and promises of infrastructure investment.

The $10.5 million…

This home radiates love. Set in the perfect location on a quiet street just steps away from the best eating in Denver, you will fall in love too.

The open floor plan was perfectly updated by the previous owners in the highest quality, and allows for an easy flow of light. The living room has a gas fireplace and offers a cozy space to curl up in the winter. The dining space is large enough for all your friends, and the spectacular kitchen has an easy layout and high end finishes. Two ample bedrooms, and one gorgeous bathroom finish the main level. But you'll really love the sun porch for an afternoon of reading, or storing your mountain gear. The basement has a simple, finished area that acts as a third non-conforming bedroom, or an added living…

Denver isn't the only place with a housing shortage and a booming market.

Politico tells the story of Seattle workers who are fighting to be able to live where they work.

On a brisk Saturday morning in March, a 27-year-old programmer named Zach Lubarsky, bundled in a fatigue jacket and knit cap, took a ReachNow rental car to the north end of Seattle and spent an hour or so scouting one of city’s most desirable neighborhoods. Wallingford, as it’s known, offers house hunters some of the best specimens of the city’s famous century-old Craftsman bungalows.

But Lubarsky wasn’t hunting for a house. He wants the whole neighborhood.

To Lubarsky, a number cruncher-turned-housing activist, Wallingford’s architectural jewels, with their grand…
