Placemaking, Integration Define Mixed-Use Projects in Texas

by Taylor Williams March 27, 2020

Development trends in commercial real estate are beholden to the whims of consumer behavior. When it comes to mixed-use in the 21st century, successful projects deliver a high-quality experience that centers on a sense of social belonging and connection — for living, working and playing alike. “In today’s experiential economy, demographic changes and shifts in consumer values and preferences across generations are converging on the desire for social connection,” says Brian Cramer, senior vice president and head of the Dallas office of mixed-use developer Newland Communities. “People crave experiences and connections, which is why mixed-use environments will become even more important in community development.” Bob Schultz, the developer of Mid Main, a mixed-use destination in Houston’s Midtown neighborhood, echoes Cramer’s position on man’s inherently social nature as a driver of growth in the mixed-use space. “Our experience is that these various populations are willing to live with each other as never before,” says Schultz. “Demographics of those who live in urban areas cross over in terms of age and economic differences in ways that are either comfortable or virtually unnoticed by the different populations. In other words, people who like to live, work and play in areas with density value …

by John Nelson March 17, 2020

DENVER — Kroenke Sports and Entertainment (KSE) and Revesco Properties have received a $124.6 million loan to refinance Elitch Gardens Theme and Water Park in downtown Denver. The 130-year-old property is Colorado’s only combination amusement park and water park. The park is set to open for its 2020 season in April, but no word has come out if the outbreak of COVID-19 has changed that plan. Eric Tupler and Tyler Dumon of JLL arranged the five-year, floating-rate loan through Pacific Western Bank. KSE and Revesco, both based in Denver, plan to use the loan to retire existing debt and fund predevelopment work for the future River Mile project. Expected to take 25 years to fully come to fruition, River Mile is Revesco’s planned mixed-use district that will span 62 acres along a one-mile stretch of the South Platte River. KSE is a partner on the project. River Mile will eventually replace the amusement park, according to local media outlets. The redevelopment is expected to span 14 million square feet of residential and commercial mixed-use space, as well as public space along the riverfront. The River Mile project will include Meow Wolf, a 90,000-square-foot art installation attraction that is expected to …
