Are there even any low whispers or rumors of anyone trying to buy the Borden's facility?  The plant itself fronts Denver and looks at the jail - not exactly the easiest location to redevelop (and I'm not sure you could repurpose a milk plant very efficiently).  All those lots with parked trucks and trailers near the Brady Theater, however, could offer some great development opportunities for someone with a lot of money or, oh I don't know, maybe a family foundation.

Considering the age of the dairy, it likely is loaded with asbestos. Usually slows down a deal.

You meant Main and Cameron: Southeast Corner

That building was a old Ford dealership, I can tell you nothing will happen to that building that has to do with any kind of music,liquor sales or alternative life styles. I am sure it will stay empty until the own dies! That's what I heard.

Same story I heard.  Fortunately I believe the owner is well along in years.

Who knows about Wally, its his kids who will inherit the business and property. Hope to see businesses on the street level and lofts on the top level! Those would be some of the best lofts in the district with those windows!

i agree, i've always thought that building would make really great lofts. besides the tribune, they'd be the only real lofts in the brady.

Pic looking north from the 33rd floor of the BOk Tower.

I labeled what I could in terms of new construction or remodeling.
Hopefully they are all correct.

Careful.  Photos like that ruin the "downtown is dead" paradigm.  Obviously Vision 2025, the new ball park, BOK center, and individual entrepreneurship has been an utter FAILboat in downtown.
