1415 Tremont Place

A new concept plan has been filed for 1415 Tremont Place in Downtown Denver, aiming to bring new life to a long-vacant site.

Built in 1957, the property’s earliest known tenant was H. R. Meiniger Co., a fine art materials supplier that called the building home from 1963 to 1990. It later landed in the hands of Brookfield Properties, a major real estate player known for land banking sites across Denver, before selling in 2023 to Kippah LLC for $4.6 million.

The latest proposal calls for the adaptive reuse of the existing two story, 9,000 square foot steel framed structure and the demolition of an aging one story building next door. The renovated space could host offices with ground floor retail, a childcare center, or other commercial uses, though no tenant has been confirmed.

The cleared portion of the site would become surface parking while the project team works with the city to navigate Downtown Core zoning challenges tied to build to and active use requirements along Tremont.

One explored concept envisions the site as an early childhood center with outdoor play areas, public art, and improved pedestrian space.

Framed as a short term activation, the plan preserves the corner of Tremont and 14th for future high density development. The ownership sees this as a way to breathe life into the block now while keeping long term possibilities wide open, a mix of immediate community use and strategic growth.
