Plans are underway for the construction of a series of townhomes on the south side of Grand Junction that will go up in the section of the city known as the Riverfront at Dos Rios.
The project, called Crawford Row, will see the construction of 3-story homes, housing either three or four bedrooms each, gourmet kitchens, and balconies.
Floor plans for the townhomes will range from either 16 feet in width or 20 feet.
The larger Riverfront at Dos Rios is a 58-acre mixed use site that city officials have spent years promoting as a vibrant combined open space, commercial, and light industrial development. It includes access to trail systems as well as access to the Colorado River.
The Crawford Row project will ultimately see the construction of 56 townhomes that will also include private outdoor space and two-car garages.
Crawford Row is named in honor of brothers George, J.A.K., and Thomas Crawford, three Grand Junction pioneers who owned a brick factory in the city in the late 19th century.
The Riverfront at Dos Rios project began in earnest in 1990 when the City of Grand Junction purchased the site, which was formerly a landfill.
Work at the site has already seen the building of a $120,000 bike park called the Dos Rios Bike Playground.
