12 / BUILDING DIALOGUE / JUNE 2016
Publisher’s Note
C ranes continue to dot the skyline. Developers are cre-
ating space. General contractors are building space.
Architects are designing space. Interior designers are
outfitting space. Landscape architects are beautifying
space.
Building Dialogue is a reflection of Denver’s good fortune
and leadership. This month, we feature an addition to the
downtown skyline, 1401 Lawrence St., as well as an adaptive
reuse project at Stapleton, Stanley Marketplace. CBRE’s latest
Workplace360, which is a design approach to workplace strate-
gy that maximizes collaboration and promotes productivity, is
now open for business at 1225 17th St.
With all of the building going on around town, it seems like
the right time to add two new features, Designer Approved
and Inside & Out(side). Readers will get the inside scoop on
what’s hot in the world of design and how end users are filling
out their spaces.
Columnists tap into the changing face of the local archi-
tectural community in Colorado Pulse, the evolving role of
women as architects in Creative Content, what motivated Tom
Clark at Metro Denver EDC to build bridges in Leading the
Way, propelling workplace change inMoving Forward, relocat-
ingWelltok’s corporate headquarters in End Users andmoving
Gusto into its new space in Project Management.
We have health care covered with stories on Denver Health’s
Southwest FamilyHealthCenter and the expansion of theUni-
versity of Colorado Health Eye Center. On the other end of the
spectrum, we also get a glimpse into the future of cemeteries.
Other topics include building meaningful business relation-
ships, creating collaborative workspaces, designing the library
of the century, unveiling a new plan for downtown Denver
parks, building upscale residential and looking in-depth at
Gensler and its charitable side.
Creating space. Building dialogue. That’s what it’s all about.
The built environment is looking good. We look forward to
sharing more of your stories in the next issue.
