3980 Quebec St
PRIME COVERED LAND PLAY & REDEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY
Positioned perfectly in one of Denver’s most accessible transit corridors, 3980 Quebec Street represents a premier covered land play for forward thinking affordable housing developers. Rather than viewing the property through the lens of a traditional office asset, this offering centers on a strategic repositioning opportunity. The site features a 40,000 SF multi-tenant building situated on nearly 2 acres (84,242 SF) of prime land zoned I-MX-5. Investors can capitalize on existing cash flow or nearterm holding income from the existing structure while navigating the entitlement and permitting
process to scrape and construct a high-density, income-restricted residential community.
The current owner is seeking to lease spaces and sell the building.

The EHA Development Advantage: Maximize Your Yield
By leveraging Denver’s Expanding Housing Affordability (EHA) ordinance, a dedicated affordable housing developer can unlock density and project cost-efficiencies on this specific parcel:
-7-Story Massing Bonus: While the baseline I-MX-5 zoning caps heights at 5 stories, utilizing the EHA Enhanced On-Site Compliance pathway grants a by-right 2-story bonus, allowing for a massive 7-story structure.
-Minimized Parking Requirements: Take advantage of aggressive parking reductions granted to affordable projects under the EHA framework, significantly lowering subterranean or structured parking construction costs and maximizing net rentable square footage.
-Optimized Unit Density: The massive lot square footage combined with a 7-story profile enables an aggressive unit mix, allowing a developer to maximize the total number of much-needed income-restricted units in the North Denver submarket.
Location & Connectivity
-Proximity to Amenities: Minutes away from the Walmart Supercenter, Martin Luther King Jr. Recreation Center, and the booming Northfield commercial hub.
-Commuter Centric: Exceptional visibility along Quebec St with rapid, direct access to downtown Denver and the greater metro area via the adjacent I-70 corridor.
