University of Denver Station TOD Plan

Project Description
As part of the project to study mobility improvements in the DU LRT station area, Leese & Associates created redevelopment scenarios for the DU parking structure on the southeast corner of South Buchtel and High Street, the blocks west of University between South Buchtel and Asbury, and the RTD parking garage and plaza at the DU LRT station.

The recommendations for the RTD parking structure include a residential wrap on the south and west sides of the parking garage, made possible by staging RTD’s buses on South Buchtel, and retrofitting the parking structure to allow its exclusive use by private automobiles, creating 56 new car spaces.
