Speer / Cherry Creek Edge

The southern and western fringe of LoDo along Speer Boulevard and Cherry Creek — where glass-and-steel high-rise towers replaced surface parking lots in the 2000s-2020s. This is LoDo's luxury tier: newer construction with floor-to-ceiling windows, mountain panoramas from upper floors, structured parking, and full-service amenities including pools, fitness centers, and concierge desks. Buildings like The Spire, 1401 Wewatta, and Glass House define the skyline here. Cherry Creek Trail runs along the southern edge, connecting joggers and cyclists to Confluence Park and the South Platte River trail system. Less historic character than the warehouse core but more modern finishes, better soundproofing, and larger floor plans. HOA fees are the highest in LoDo, reflecting the building amenities and professional management. Appeals to professionals and downsizers who want turnkey urban living with trail access and mountain views.
