Colorado Rockies – McGregor Square

Denver, Colorado

 

The Laramie Company was chosen as both retail consultant and leasing agents for the portions of McGregor Square, an 850,000 square foot, mixed-use project in the heart of Lower Downtown Denver and adjacent to Coors Field.

After completing a competitive retail market study, Laramie determined the amount of supportable retail space along with the optimal tenant mix for over 75,000 square feet.

Laramie then implemented the leasing program, which resulted in attracting premier retail tenants to the project, including the iconic Tattered Cover Book Store. Working closely with McGregor Square’s ownership, including Dick Montfort, an Owner of the Colorado Rockies Baseball Club, the retail areas are scheduled to be fully leased and operating by Rockies’ Opening Day 2021.

Downtown Westminster

Westminster, CO

 

From beginning to end, the Laramie Company has led the redevelopment of the former Westminster Mall site into Downtown Westminster. Laramie represented the City of Westminster in the assemblage and purchase of over 100 acres of land. Simultaneously, Laramie coordinated the competitive development market study and consulted with the City on its long-term vision to create a dense, urban downtown for Westminster. This resulted in a 28 city-block plan, which is being developed on a block-by-block basis by multiple, nationally known developers. When complete, Downtown Westminster will house 2,500 residential units, 2 – 4 million square feet of office space, and 750,000 square feet of retail.

The first phase includes over 1 million square feet of mixed-use development, including 800 multi-family units, a 125-room boutique hotel, and 150,000 square feet of new retail space including a 10-screen Alamo Draft House Cinema, which opened in 2019. Laramie continues to work with the City as both a consultant recruiting developers, and as the listing land broker for the entire site.

Additionally, Laramie has been retained by multiple developers to their lease 100,000 square feet of the ground floor retail spaces throughout the project. Downtown Westminster exemplifies Laramie’s full range of services and expertise to ensure a successful implementation of the City of Westminster’s vision for a vibrant downtown.

Downtown Denver, Colorado

 

Orchard-Cover-Photo-cropped-v3

The Orchard Town Center in Westminster truly demonstrates the breadth of services the Laramie Company has to offer. Through an extensive market study, Laramie pinpointed a previously unidentified greenfield site with no access as the ideal location for the development. Laramie assembled the 200-acre site and for the City of Westminster, assisted in the selection of the master developer, attracted the anchor tenants, and negotiated a development & finance agreement in the amount of $85,000,000 in public bond issuance for public infrastructure.

After Forest City developed the Orchard Town Center, they hired Laramie to lease it the 400,000 square feet of retail space. Laramie took the project from 50% to 90% leased. Today, the Orchard Town Center remains a catalyst for the region and one of the single largest sales tax producers for the City of Westminster..

Lone Tree Annexation of Park Meadows Mall

Lone Tree, Colorado

 

Park Meadows

In 2006, The Laramie Company took the lead in negotiating the annexation of Park Meadows Mall from unincorporated Douglas County into the City of Lone Tree. Representing the City, Laramie analyzed short-and-long term economic projections for Park Meadows Mall and, based around this information, negotiated a public/private partnership between the City and this top-performing retail property. This partnership created a win-win situation for both entities, with Lone Tree receiving a significant increase in sales tax revenue, and Park Meadows receiving a reliable source of renewable funding to both maintain and improve the mall infrastructure, making the mall and the city long-term partners in success.
