ULI Impact Awards
The ULI Impact Award winners were announced at a gala at the Seawell Ballroom, Denver Center for the Performing Arts, on Thursday, April
4. Additional awards presented were individual awards for Lifetime Achievement and Rising Star. Some 500 industry leaders attended
the ceremony.
THE WINNERS:
INFILL (category sponsored by Otten Johnson Robinson Neff + Ragonetti)
Fruitdale School Lofts, Wheat Ridge. Vacant since 2007, the last school designed by Denver architect Temple Buell (Paramount Theater, Fillmore, many schools) has been reborn as 16 solar-powered and affordable lofts set within a sustainable landscape.
INFLUENCE (category sponsored by Brinkmann Constructors)
Clinica Health, Lafayette. Designed by a noted health-care architecture firm, Clinica delivers services to 15,000 uninsured people a year in a location accessible to populations in need. The jury also cited the project’s creative finance requiring a capital stack of nine sources.
INNOVATION Category (category sponsored by Redland)
Fifty Eight Hundred, Lakewood. This project rescues a long vacant/ abandoned/contaminated eight-story office building as high-quality affordable housing that is 100 percent preleased with a wait-list of 3,500. Its success is changing the image of a blighted area of Lakewood and attracting new interest in business revitalization.
INSPIRE (category sponsored by Trammell Crow Co.)
Downtown Fort Collins Enhanced Alleyway Program. Since 2006, this project has revamped seven square blocks of alleys with paving, lighting and public art, creating walkable new connections from Old Town to CSU. It has spurred new investment in 12 buildings and boosted the value of adjacent properties.
