Thrive Development Co. is converting two industrial buildings in Lincoln Park into a 14,700-square-foot food hall and entertainment complex. The project, which also includes a coworking building, is expected to open in the fourth quarter of 2027.
Why it matters
The Lincoln Station development signals a shift in the local neighborhood as industrial land is repurposed for hospitality and remote-work infrastructure. For local operators, the project marks a significant move toward densification near the proposed stadium site.
The development covers 1.6 acres acquired for $4.7 million in 2022, featuring a 14,700-square-foot food hall and a 19,100-square-foot beer garden. A separate 15,000-square-foot coworking building is planned for 1350 Shoshone St.

Market Landscape
This development aligns with the broader push to reconfigure land use near the proposed Burnham Yard stadium site. It reflects a growing trend of integrating remote-work facilities with entertainment venues in formerly industrial urban pockets.
Local operators in Lincoln Park should monitor the site for shifts in commercial foot traffic and demand for adjacent services. Those in the hospitality sector may consider the request for proposals as a potential opportunity for expansion.
The takeaway
The transformation of 1701 W. 13th Ave. highlights the increasing convergence of hospitality and remote work in Denver's industrial corridors. Operators should track the project's Q4 2027 opening as a bellwether for business demand in the neighborhood.
