Another Denver concert venue planned, this time as part of the development around Ball Arena

Anyone else feel like there are about 2,000 concert venues around Denver at this point? Well, here comes another one…

Kroenke Sports and Entertainment has submitted a concept plan for the first phase of a multi-use development around Ball Arena in downtown Denver that includes a 13-story hotel, two 12-story residential buildings and a 5,000-seat performance venue.

The plan says the performance venue would be 173,595 square feet, but the city will have to administratively approve the concept plan before KSE can submit a site development plan, apply for building permits and fulfill other requirements.

Last year, KSE signed a deal tying the Nuggets and Avalanche to Ball Arena and the land around it through 2050, with plans to develop 56 acres of land into things like this venue.
