The 234 Apartment

The population in Cherry Creek North is set to grow exponentially as development hits a crescendo. Can the area seamlessly transition from a retail destination to a mixed-use neighborhood? Cherry Creek has come a long way from its origins as a farming community established as the town of Harman in 1886. During the early 20th century , it was just a few houses, small farms and greenhouses on 320 acres. It was considered an economical place to live.  Fast forward to today, and the town's founder, Edwin Preston Harman , likely wouldn't recognize the area, which has evolved as Denver's premier shopping and dining district and one of the priciest neighborhoods in the region to call home. Cherry Creek is is undergoing yet another transformation with the development of new apartments, condos, office space, retail projects and a new hotel. The tony shopping district is experiencing the biggest construction boom it's seen in decades, fueled by developers wan...

Chico’s street names have meanings, some clear and some obscure. New residents quickly learn that the first letters of Chestnut, Hazel, Ivy, Cherry and Orange streets — which line up east to west — spell out Chico, but there are a number of streets in the vicinity of Chico State University that aren’t so obvious. They include: Normal Avenue Chico State University traces its roots to the state Normal School — a teachers college — that was established in 1887 on a cherry orchard Chico founder John Bidwell donated to the state. Normal Avenue was originally called Sycamore Street , but the name was changed when the college arrived. Normal is also a bit abnormal in that the vast majority the roads south of Big Chico Creek are streets, but Normal is an avenue. Most of the roads north of the creek are avenues. Mechoopda Street/Rancheria Drive These two streets between West Sacramento and West First avenues, between Warner and North Cedar streets , reference the Indian rancheria that u...

Denver's housing market has been red hot for the past few years, with buyers of more modest means often finding themselves priced out of properties thanks to bidding wars that routinely generate over-list offers. But as indicated by the presence of a "Price Reduced" sign on a home in a sought-after part of Centennial, as seen in the photo above, this situation may finally be about to change. Janene Russeau of Madison & Company, who's handling the South Madison Way and East Phillips Avenue house — it was originally priced at $639,000, but is currently going for $599,000 — feels that "it's turning a little bit more into a buyer's market, as opposed to a seller's market." If so, that's a big change. As recently as April, real estate agents such as Karen Mistrot, the woman behind Karen & Company Realty, were reacting to the incredible demand for new houses by way of "Coming Soon" signage for homes about to be put on the marke...
