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.
