Plans are advancing for the construction of a 25-story building that will go up at the site of a well-known Firestone Complete Auto Care outlet in downtown Denver.
As proposed, the new structure would house just over 260 multifamily units, and will also include a club room, gym, swimming pool, and outdoor terrace and dog run.
To be called The Fairlane and offering units ranging in size from studio to three bedrooms, the project belongs to the GBT Realty Corporation, which is based in Brentwood, Tennessee.
GBT purchased the half-acre site at 2000 N. Broadway in the spring of 2021 for around $5.4 million. Demolition of the Firestone building, which opened in 1965, will precede construction of the new building.
The Firestone Complete Auto Care chain launched in 1926 and today includes more than 1,700 outlets.
