Whew, last weekend was busy.  With more than 300+ visitors to our SPIRE Summer Open House event it was an exciting weekend of building tours, free yoga classes, and free Jamba Juice.  Word of mouth about the many benefits of SPIRE must be spreading and we want to thank everyone who stopped by.  We also want to apologize.  It was such an incredible turnout that at about 3:00 pm we ran out of Jamba Juice.  We know some of you missed out on those delicious smoothies and we’d like to make it up to you. The first 100 people to stop by our Sales Center this weekend will receive a certificate for a free Classic Jamba Juice with a free boost.

Our team will also be available to take you on a tour of SPIRE and its many amenities that are part of focus on Healthy High Rise Living.  With two pools, two spas, fitness center, yoga floor and zen garden, SPIRE provides great facilities for our residents to enjoy.   With our great walkability (Walkscore of 100 out of 100) SPIRE is a “Walkers Paradise”.  The score is based upon SPIRE’s easy access to public transportation, shuttles, bike and walking paths, and the many entertainment and dining options within a few blocks.  In the heart of Downtown Denver and the Theater District our location offers residents the best of that our wonderful city of Denver has to offer.  So if you are out on a bike ride this weekend, checking out an exhibit or performance downtown, taking in an afternoon yoga class, or just window shopping downtown, please feel free to stop by our sales center at 891 14th street in the base of the building.  

Thank you and we wish everyone a wonderful weekend.  Here are some other weekend events you may want to check out while you are in the Neighborhood of SPIRE.

Thank you to everyone who joined us at SPIRE yesterday for our SPIRE Summer Open House.  In a celebration of Healthy High Rise Living, we invited the residents and neighbors of SPIRE to join us for free Yoga classes, Jamba Juice, and a tour of the building and its many amenities.  A special thank you to Jillian Wendt, yoga instructor from Samadhi Center who came over to lead our classes.

It seems that healthy high rise living is resonating throughout Denver.  In addition to the bustling activity of this weekend the Denver Post published a great article about SPIRE yesterday. Visit “With a Walk-Score of 100 out of 100, Spire becomes downtown’s fastest selling community; Jamba Juice today” to learn more. The article reports that SPIRE is… “what’s become Downtown’s very fastest selling project”.

Thank you Denver! Thank you homeowners!

Sticking with our Healthy High Rise Living focus we are asking everyone what healthy aspects of SPIRE are your favorite.

Whether you are a beginner or an experienced yogi, all levels will enjoy this class led by Jillian Wendt, yoga instructor from Samadhi Center. Bring a friend and your mat, but please RSVP as space is limited. Keep your energy going by rejuvenating with a delicious smoothie from Jamba Juice, tour our model residences and learn more about healthy high-rise living at SPIRE.

Denver is an amazingly healthy city.  It could be the 300+ days of sunshine.  It could be our wonderful climate and each of our gorgeous four seasons.  It could be the many biking and running trails throughout the city or our Rocky Mountain backyard.

It might be all of the above.

Whatever the cause, Denver is consistently ranked as one of the healthiest cities in the U.S. and all of us at SPIRE thought that was pretty special.  Embracing healthy living was a core value for SPIRE.  That drove the creation of the spacious fitness center, the multiple spas and pools, the yoga floor and the Zen garden.  It was important that homeowners in SPIRE could find both fitness and wellness features for their Denver lifestyle.   SPIRE homeowners might relax with a run on the treadmill, a early morning yoga class, some weight training on state-of-the-art fitness machines, or a simple soak at the end of the day. Healthy living at SPIRE is easy.

After considering the amenities in the building, our SPIRE design team looked at the lifestyle that continues after you walk out the front door.  The location of SPIRE was selected for its proximity to the light rail, the 16th Street shuttle, and the Cherry Creek bike and running paths.  The website “Walk Score” gave our address of 891 14th Street a perfect 100 out of 100 for walkability and named SPIRE a “Walkers Paradise”.  Need the occasional bike or car as well???  No worries.    If your healthy lifestyle plan is to live car optional, SPIRE is here to help.  SPIRE residents enjoy free memberships to both Bcycle and Connect by Hertz.
