16 Unit Housing Development Proposed at 1330 Leyden Street in Denver’s Montclair Neighborhood
DENVER, CO – Plans have been submitted for a new residential infill development at 1330 Leyden Street in Denver’s Montclair neighborhood.
The proposal would introduce 16 new housing units through the construction of two three-story residential buildings, each containing eight units.
Project Design
According to project documents, the development would be created through a lot split process, dividing the existing parcel into two separate sites. Each parcel would then contain an eight-unit apartment building, bringing the total number of proposed units to sixteen.
The project is planned within the E-MX-3 zoning district, which allows multi-unit residential development and encourages moderate-density housing along neighborhood corridors.
Site and Building Design
The proposed buildings would each rise three stories and collectively include roughly 13,200 square feet of residential floor area. Site plans show pedestrian entrances and patios facing Leyden Street, while parking would be located at the rear of the buildings and accessed from the alley.
Plans show a mix of studio and two-bedroom units. Each building would include four studio units on the ground floor, while the upper floors would contain four two-bedroom units designed as two-story layouts. The studio units are planned to be approximately 550 square feet, while the two-bedroom units would span about 1,100 square feet across two levels.
In total, the project would provide eight surface parking spaces, along with bike parking and landscaped areas around the property.
Neighborhood Context
The project site is located within Denver’s Montclair neighborhood, an area characterized by a mix of single-family homes, small apartment buildings, and neighborhood-serving commercial uses.
The proposal reflects a broader trend of small-scale infill development, where underutilized parcels are redeveloped with multi-unit housing in established neighborhoods.
