Denver’s River North Arts District (RiNo) is undergoing dramatic and rapid transition. As RiNo transforms with new zoning and development, the scale and population of the neighborhood increases. As a new physical identity emerges, there remains a familiar material continuity that echoes RiNo’s industrial precedent.
The strong cultural identity of RiNo is distinguished by the interweaving of the arts and creative industry within the urban fabric. Located in a vibrant, transit-oriented redevelopment zone, 3900 Blake Street incorporates commercial, residential, and entertainment spaces, featuring 271 high-density housing units, ground level retail, parking, a landscaped roof deck and pool, in an architecturally prominent design.
3900 Blake Street interweaves RiNo’s creative spirit and industrial history with contemporary technology to maximize resilience and sustainability within dynamic design. By integrating smart and efficient modern rental housing, private and collective residential outdoor space, as well as appealing pedestrian scaled spaces at the ground level, this signature building maintains RiNo’s reputation for innovation.
