LoDo Towers
Integrating Sustainability in the Heart of Denver
Lower Downtown (LoDo) Towers is in the heart of Denver, Colorado, on one of the city’s most desirable corners. Over the past decade, the property has seen nearly $20 million in capital investments, encompassing a broad range of enhancements, new amenities, and sustainable improvements. The towers were constructed in 1982 and 1983 and have leased space to commercial tenants for over 40 years. The property is within a half mile of walking or biking trails and offers easy access to mass transit.
Energy
LED lighting has been implemented in over 75% of common areas and garages. Thermostat settings are regularly monitored to conserve power.
Tenant Engagement
In addition to championing environmental initiatives, LoDo Towers also addresses community needs by partnering with several local nonprofits, charities, and organizations. These efforts, benefiting animal shelters, the BOMA holiday drive, and the Breast Cancer Foundation, encourage tenants to participate in meeting the needs of the local community.
Transportation
LoDo Towers hosted the Denver Regional Transportation District (RTD) for an open house in response to tenant requests to learn more about fares and fare structures.
Earth Day
The "Power Down Fridays" campaign, held annually in April, encourages tenants to switch off unnecessary lights over the weekend. This effort has resulted in one of the lowest months for electrical consumption at the building.
Waste
Both towers offer composting programs, e-cycle, and a paper towel recycling effort, which have had a large impact on the volume of waste produced.
Water
During recent renovations, water fountain stations with filtered water have been installed in lobby corridors allowing guests and tenants to easily refill water bottles.
