Recently, Littleton residents were having a discussion about
whether or not building more housing in the downtown area would
stimulate economic health.
Last week, they got one step closer to knowing the answer as the
Alexan Downtown Littleton apartment complex opened its doors on the
south side of West Belleview Avenue, west of Rio Grande.
“Alexan Downtown Littleton is not your cookie-cutter community,”
says the Web site.
“It is an apartment community where modern luxuries are
surrounded by outstanding mountain views, a place to rejuvenate
while sipping coffee, enjoying a morning workout and relaxing by
the resort-style pool. Alexan Downtown Littleton is your home, an
every day escape from the daily grind with state-of-the-art
facilities.”
The 350 multi-family residential units have been under
construction for more than a year, and many are still being built.
So far, 30 units have been leased.
The entire complex is slated for completion by the end of the
year, with the second building coming online in August, according
to Property Manager Stacey Winick.
Establishing the relationship between retail and resident, model
homes are equipped and decorated with products or services from
downtown Littleton merchants.
“It’s really important to us to have a downtown Littleton
presence here at the property,” Winick said.
“We want the people who visit to get a feeling of the
community.”
Alexan’s new site is the second to open in the South Metro area,
with Alexan City Center in Englewood just minutes north on the
light rail.
Littleton’s Light Rail Station is only 0.9 miles from the Alexan
Downtown Littleton.
While similar in name, Alexan City Center is no longer owned by
Trammell Crow — the owner of Littleton’s new property, and it’s
managed by a different company.
Homes vary from one-, two- and three-bedroom floor plans ranging
from 667 square feet to 1, 293 square feet.
Other amenities include kitchen islands, granite countertops and
fireplaces.
Also under construction near Historic Downtown Littleton is the
Nevada Place Condominium Residents.
Nevada Place, located at the intersection of Nevada Street and
West Powers Avenue, will feature 68 condominium residences with
one- and two-bedroom floor plans.
