More Denver Office Space is getting built by light rail stops. 

RTD is building new light rail lines to Golden, and -- eventually -- DIA, but there's still a lot of new development going on by the existing light rail stops.

Location, location, location.

When it comes to Denver Office Space, 17th Street is where it's at.

As this story explains, the financial district street is Denver's “Most Expensive Street for Office Space,” according to a report released earlier this month by Jones Lang LaSalle.

The University of Colorado is planning $100 million in new Office Space and related facilities that will house a new geosciences center in east Boulder, and that could drive up rents all over the metro area.

According to a story in the Daily Camera, the plan is for one new building of about 83,000 square feet, and renovation of an existing building that has 280,000 square feet.

Even that may not be enough, as planning officials reportedly found that the university has a "space need" to build much more instructional and related space. The report said there's a "deficit of 258,788 square feet of instructional space and deficit of 448,858 square feet of research space."

The dramatic ups and downs of the stock market have put some investors into a spot where they are rethinking what portion of their portfolios they want to keep in anything related to the Dow or the Nasdaq. 

The problem is that bonds and whatnot aren't doing very well, either, so they aren't that attractive of a place to park money outside of the stock market.

The climate for tenants in Denver Office Space is complicated, and while prices for a particular building may go up or down, the level of complexity continues to go up and up and up.

But are the actual rents going up? The answer varies, or course, by the area in each city and suburb, and within those by the neighborhood and even the block.
