Forest City Development and the Etkin Johnson Group have begun construction on Enterprise Park at Stapleton (pictured), a three-building, 441,000-square-foot office and industrial park at the site of Denver’s former Stapleton International Airport.

The first building will total 153,000 square feet and feature 30-foot-clear ceilings. The other two buildings, with 24-foot-clear ceilings, will be 139,695 square feet and 148,900 square feet. All three will include 10-foot-high glass windows, suiting them for office, showroom, R&D and assembly uses, and a front park/rear load configuration will favor warehouse/distribution tenants.

The Etkin Johnson Group has operated in Denver since 1981 and currently owns more than 5 million square feet of commercial properties in the Denver metro area.
