Southern Land Co. has broken ground on Rêve Boulder, a 242-unit apartment project on 6 acres at 30th and Pearl streets in Boulder.

In addition to the apartments, Rêve will include 24,500 SF of retail space and more than 120K SF of office space. More than 40% of the land will be devoted to open space, including a park along the historic Boulder Slough irrigation channel and many pedestrian-oriented courtyards and plazas.

“We worked hard to design something that will be a perfect fit for the Boulder community and will integrate well with the city as a whole,” Southern Land Senior Vice President of Multifamily Development Michael McNally said. “We envision Rêve Boulder as a place where Boulder residents will not only work and shop but gather for community events, festivals and other outdoor activities.”

Rêve Boulder will add a mix of new rental options, including micro, studio, efficiency, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments, live/work residences and townhomes. Apartments will range from 467 SF for a micro-apartment to 1,678 SF for penthouses. The live/work residences are two-story units that offer office space on the ground floor and living space upstairs. All units will have quartz countertops, kitchen islands, stainless steel appliances, side-by-side refrigerators, washers and dryers and outdoor balconies or terraces. The community also will have a business center, a club and game room, a 24-hour fitness center, a flex room, outdoor fire pits and a landscaped pool deck with private gazebos and flat-screen televisions.

“This project is the result of years of careful planning with the city of Boulder, and we feel confident about delivering something that will benefit Boulder for generations to come,” McNally said.
