Leavenworth between 14th and 15th?

Post by Ben »

Anyone have a clue what the plan is for the lot currently undergoing demolition next to the 15th St Lofts building on Leavenworth?

That lot had been an eyesore for a while now, with the abandoned brick building crumbling.....  They had some decent manpower on site today doing work (bull dozer, bobcat, several dump trucks, plus several additional men), so I doubt its just demo for the sake of insurance, as they'd take their sweet time doing that.

I went past there Saturday on the way to the Farmer's Market.  It looked to me like preparation for parking, as they seemed to be leveling the lot at street grade.  I'd guess it will be either parking or grass.

A friend's girlfriend is moving in there and she said they're building parking for the tenants. I don't recall if she said it was going to be a lot or a structure, but I believe it's going to be protected somehow.

Just a lot.  No structure or cover.  They looked at using the building and parking inside but didnt think it was cost effective to fix and maintain the structure.
