Here is the article from the Denver Post which says that Two Tabor is on hold. It is actually stated at the end which is part of a larger article about a health club opening at One Tabor Center.

Athletic club to open at Tabor

The third floor of the downtown center will be the gym's second location in the area

By Margaret Jackson
The Denver Post

Colorado Athletic Clubs is opening a second downtown location at Tabor Center.

The club will occupy 39,000 square feet on the third floor of the building.

Ed Williams, president and chief executive of the Wellbridge Co./Colorado Athletic Clubs, said there is room for both the existing club on Welton Street and the new club on the 16th Street Mall.

"They serve two complete, distinct markets," he said.

Welton serves the south end of downtown, and Tabor will serve the north end.

The new club, expected to open late this year, will have floor-to-ceiling windows, a 25-meter four-lane indoor pool, cardio and strength- training equipment, and studios for spinning, yoga, Pilates and group exercise.

The locker rooms will include steam rooms, saunas, whirlpools and massage rooms.

The space is where the building's food court is currently located.

The food court has been marginally successful over the years, said Steve Budorick, a partner and executive vice president at Calla han Capital Partners, which owns the building.

Most of the tenants have been on short-term leases. Two of the tenants are likely to relocate to the second floor, but Budorick declined to disclose who they are.

Callahan is also adding new restaurants on the ground level. Ling & Louie's Asian Bar and Grill opened in the building just before the holidays.

"This is a major repositioning effort we've been working on since we bought this asset in April 2007," Budorick said. "It will increase foot traffic through the center."

At the time Callahan purchased the building, which includes 570,000 square feet of office space and 150,000 square feet of retail, it intended to develop a second tower on the site. But with the financial markets in turmoil, Calla han has postponed building the project.

"We had financing but thought the terms might improve over time," Budorick said. "We're in a hold position right now and are keeping an eye on the economy and the financial markets."

Sooooo...is it still alive, or what? Anybody hear anything lately? Maybe Callahan is biding his time because he really wants to build a supertall! A guy can dream, can't he?

New sources both on SSP an in development circles say this tower may (knock on wood) finally be ready to go vertical.

Here is a recently submitted document to the City of Denver claiming air rights for the project. It lists a building height of 484 feet, 30 stories, and was signed off in late July. However, the 484 feet mark is only the space of height variance; it appears the elevation drawing measures somewhere between 430 and 450 feet tall.

If this ends up being the final building height it will beat Tabor I by a small margin. There is speculation that there will be some sort of crown on the tower as well. This will not be as grand a design as the earlier posted renderings on earlier pages, where it was speculated this tower would be 43 stories and 630 feet tall. One could hope that they would still consider that option, but at this point it seems unlikely.

Hopefully we will get more news on this project soon.

Document on II Tabor from Denver's website, as posted in the Denver Development - Mountain West forum:

According to the letter submitted along with the variance request, the building will be 420 feet tall.

so that document says that the tower will incorporate a design that will extend into the airspace over the sidewalks below?

what does that mean?

It probably just means that the building will hang over the sidewalk a bit, providing pedestrians with some cover, in the process. One Tabor already does something similar along Lawrence St., so it makes sense.

That's exactly what it means. Though I think that the overhang is a lot more pronounced than anything that occurs at One Tabor Center. Looks to be about 6' of overhang into the public space above the sidewalks. If this does go through *finally* then it looks as if a B-Cycle station will be looking for another home as well.

Hopefully this development will finally happen. Could someone change the rendering at the top of this page? The rendering in the upper left is the previous proposal which was to be 40+ floors.

Might as well put the updated renderings here:

The updated plans call for a 31-story, 420-ft building with 700,000 sq ft of space.

Hopefully. Denver has been waiting over 30 years for a tower the size of the original Tabor 2's magnitude to rise at this site. This latest shortened "cheapo" version is an injustice to the spirit and ambitions of the original master plan, both in terms of being too short and insignificant for the site and not complementing the original Tabor 1 as it should. Really looks like it belongs in the Tech Center rather than embodying the legacy of the 30-year-anticipated Tabor 2.

The City and County of Denver has a website that

and in the box on that lower right of this page

Projects Under Review
View a list of projects currently under site development plan review.


is the link

Projects Status Report (PDF)

which lists current projects that are being reviewed by the City and County of Denver. This report is updated usually every week or two.

I don't find anything listed in this current report that would indicate that there is any planning or anything else going on for the Tabor II site.

Sorry if this isn't the best news on this project, but an awful lot of other development is going through the building permit process.....

Awesome to hear. This proposal was an outright travesty and disgrace to our 30-year anticipation for a significant 40+ story tower to rise on the site. The pre-built columns have not been capped off, lying in wait, for the last 30 years only to "support" some insignificant excuse for an unremarkable development. The site's legacy and history alone warrants something much bigger, much better, happen here. This is a sacred ground for a prime 40+ story building. This parcel should not be betrayed.

This is great news!

What are the cross streets will the new tower be located at?

This will actually be on the southeast corner of 17th and Larimer Street's and it's interesting that this has been brought back from the dead again! I would have preferred the 630ft 43 floor version but something is better than nothing-I really like the angled glass design which will be unique and different downtown-its taller to than the 420 one although 420 is a good GREEN number! lol!
