Options for housing in downtown Colorado Springs have grown exponentially since the Loft Lady completed the very first loft project downtown in 2000. Today there are more reasons than ever to consider loft/condo living and here are a few:
- Walkability & Public Transportation
Just about everything you need is within walking distance in downtown Colorado Springs. If you want to venture a little further, you can use the free downtown ZEB shuttle or have easy access to the bus terminal. For a little fun, rent a Pike Ride bike or Lime scooter and explore a new part of downtown.
- Proximity to Events, Arts & Culture and Restaurants
From the new Colorado College hockey arena and the Fine Arts Center to the Pikes Peak Center and Switchback stadium, there is no shortage of entertainment downtown. First Friday Art Walks are a great way to explore the arts scene downtown and you can grab a drink or a bite to eat at one of the many fabulous venues in the area.
- Unique Housing Options
Downtown has been the heart of Colorado Springs since its founding, and the area is steeped in culture and history while boasting some of the newest development in the city. Living in the area provides the opportunity to live in a converted historic building, or enjoy one of the newly constructed modern living spaces.
