Landmark Properties, a fully-integrated real estate firm specializing in development, construction, investment management, and operation of high-quality residential communities, announced it has acquired a 15-acre site at 1345 28th Street near the University of Colorado Boulder (CU Boulder) in Boulder, Colorado. The firm will begin construction on The Standard at Boulder, a 936-bed student housing community, Landmark Properties’ first development of purpose-built student housing product in the Boulder market.
“The Boulder market in general has had a shortage of new housing supply and the university housing market specifically has been especially supply-constrained,” said Wes Rogers, President and CEO of Landmark Properties. “The location presented the perfect opportunity to bring much-needed student housing to the area while creating a highly unique six-acre public greenspace adjacent to Boulder Creek and the Boulder Creek Path. We were drawn to this site because of its proximity to the CU Boulder campus and the convenient access to a variety of built-in neighborhood amenities.”
The four-story Standard at Boulder community will offer students a mix of floorplans ranging from studios to four-bedroom options – some with private balconies — as well as an expansive amenity package. Residents will have access to 29,000 square feet of amenities including multiple rooftop decks with views of the surrounding campus and the Flatirons, an outdoor pool and pool deck, a club room and several study lounges as well as parking for 348 vehicles and electric vehicle charging stations.
“It’s not every day that we have the opportunity to include such an incredible amount of green space for resident and public use,” continued Rogers. “And, to do so while also providing new housing options for CU Boulder students makes this deal a true win-win for students and the community at large.”
