“We came from a more traditional space,” Leines said. “We wanted an open, transparent type of space. Something with a…

DCT real estate closing Denver HQ and laying off nearly 60 people as it joins Prologis
DCT Industrial Trust is closing its Denver headquarters just months after Prologis Inc. acquired the logistics real estate company for $8.4 billion in April.
As part of the permanent shutdown, DCT said it notified between 55 to 59 employees that they will lose their jobs beginning July 31. The cuts affect positions at its headquarters, 555 17th St, Suite 3700, and will occur through Oct. 31, according to a Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification letter filed May 31 with the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment.
Cuts include the CEO, Chief Financial Officer and several vice president and director roles. But in an earlier statement, Prologis said that DCT CEO Philip L. Hawkins will join the Prologis board of directors.

Key-turning tips for homebuyers — and for home sellers — in Denver’s molten market
If you’ve already ventured out into the red-hot world of Denver residential real estate, you know buying a home in this molten market isn’t as easy as walking into a showing and shouting “I’ll take it!”
Conversely, there is a perception out there that all it takes to sell a home a mile above sea level is putting a for sale sign in the yard and sitting back while a bidding war ensues. Maybe closer to reality, but not the wisest way to go about it if you want the best results.

Below are five tips for homebuyers — and five for home sellers — for how best to navigate the choppy seas of a residential real estate market featuring epic demand and low, low inventory.

Hundreds of Denver homeowners caught in affordable housing snag now talking with city officials about solutions
For more than 125 Denver homeowners involved in the regulatory mess that has ensnared the city’s affordable home ownership program, this month marks the beginning of a period of relative calm.
As of Monday, 138 of 301 households flagged earlier this year for failing to complying with rules that manage who can own income-restricted housing and how they use it have agreed to participate in a voluntary resolution program with the city, officials say. Signing up means those homeowners do not have to worry about potential legal action against them until at least Jan. 1.
The deadline to sign up for the program was Thursday. But city officials say the door is still open for the homeowners who haven’t agreed to participate yet. As of last week, 223 affected homeowners had responded to city letters, calls and visits regarding their housing situation. Not all of them have signed forms committing to participation in the voluntary compliance program, but city officials are hopeful a dialog will ..
Go inside Lucky’s Market, the Kroger-backed specialty grocer opening in St. Pete (Photos)
The glass deli cases at Lucky's Market in St. Petersburg are lined with just about everything but cold cuts: Potato-kale cakes, chicken and black bean quesadillas, vegan kelp noodle pad Thai, smoked turkey.
That's because it's not a deli, store manager Curt Rotrock says. It's a kitchen — which is emblazoned on the wall in illuminated red block letters.
“It is a full-fledged kitchen inside of Lucky's Market,” Rotrock said. “Everything here is made from a recipe. It's not poured out of a container.…
