Plans are in the works for the demolition of a one-time Residence Inn hotel in Denver to make way for a new multi housing complex.
Located at 2777 N. Zuni Street, the two-story hotel was built in 1982 and has been one of nearly 900 such extended stay inns operating under the Marriott brand.
The motel sits on a 3.8-acre site in the city’s Highland neighborhood.
Now the multifamily developer and investor Kairoi Residential, which is headquartered in San Antonio, has purchased the structure for nearly $39 million with the goal of building 434 apartment units in a five-story building.
The residential component will comprise at least 450,000 square feet, while another 170,000 square feet will be given over to a parking facility.
The Chicago-based firm of Valerio Dewalt Train has signed on as architect for the project.
Kairoi Residential specializes in urban, high-rise residential projects. In the last two decades it has built roughly 69,000 multifamily units across the country, at a total dollar value of $9.8 billion.
The company has been particularly active in Texas and Arizona.
Plans for the N. Zuni Street project are currently being reviewed by the City of Denver.
