DENVER, June 12, 2023 – JLL Capital Markets announced today that it has secured construction financing for The Hunter, a 214-unit, Class A multi-housing project located in Colorado Springs’ New South End neighborhood, one of the area’s fastest growing submarkets.

JLL worked on behalf of the borrower, a joint venture between Formativ and Argosy Real Estate Partners.

The seven-story development will be complete in late 2024. The studio, one- and two-bedroom units will feature modern interiors, full kitchens and in-unit washers and dryers. Common amenities will include a two-story tenant lounge with mountain views, golf simulator, pool and hot tub, fitness center, ample coworking space, bike storage, a year-round amenity deck, dog wash, above grade parking garage and more.

The Hunter will be situated at 225 E Cimarron St. within an Opportunity Zone. The property is just minutes from downtown Colorado Springs and proximate to I-25, as well as walkable to Tejon Streets’ acclaimed food and drink establishments and the recently built Weidner Field. Within a five-mile drive of the property is 14 million square feet of office space and 20 million square feet of retail space, demonstrating the area’s continued development.
