MSU Denver Student Housing Building

Metropolitan State University of Denver is planning to construct an approximately 550-bed student-housing building on the Auraria Campus, part of the first on-campus housing project in the University’s history.

The development on the campus’ north end, across from Ball Arena and just east of the Tivoli Garage, will also include a second building, owned by the Auraria Campus, that will offer workforce-housing units for mixed-income residents, including qualifying MSU Denver faculty members, staff members and students.

With planned retail, food and beverage space, the mixed-use development aims to create a vibrant, community-centric downtown environment while addressing growing concerns about soaring housing costs in Denver.

Filings made this month at the state level paint a clearer picture of what a sizable development could bring to a growing area west of Midtown—and when.

The mixed-use Blandtown project, called Huber West Midtown, would deliver nearly 850 multifamily units across 9 acres on several properties spanning between 1575 and 1593 Huber St.

The site is adjacent to active railroad lines, just east of Topgolf Atlanta, Ellsworth Industrial Boulevard, and businesses such as Scope Fine Art and Steady Hand Beer Co. A new segment of the Atlanta Beltline’s 22-mile loop is under construction roughly a block south.

The Auraria Campus will soon break ground on its ambitious housing and retail development project.

The first phase of construction is expected to start this summer on the Auraria Campus’ Ballfield Project, which seeks to breathe new life into the Tivoli Quad at 11th Street and Auraria Parkway.

The project will bring non-student residents back to the campus for the first time in decades.

What is now the home to Denver’s three public institutions of higher education — the University of Colorado Denver, Metropolitan State University of Denver and the Community College of Denver — was once a bustling community of immigrants.
