Colorado Real Estate Journal covers Denver projects in Obama's 2014 budget

The Colorado Real Estate Journal reports on two projects in metro Denver that are identified in the federal budget for 2014, including $15 million for work on the Byron White U.S. Courthouse downtown.

Excerpt:

"By investing in our public buildings, a smaller federal footprint and improved border crossing stations, GSA will not only create savings for the American people, but also assist in providing them with the most efficient and effective government possible," said GSA Acting Administrator Dan Tangherlini. "The president’s budget will ensure that federal agencies can support economic and job growth in communities across this country."

Two projects in the Denver metro area were specifically identified in the budget, including a request for $13.9 million for ongoing remediation work to multiple sites at the Denver Federal Center in Lakewood. Under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Consent Order Program, the state of Colorado requires cleanup of these sites. The remediation effort has been ongoing for the last 10 years and the funding request will complete the required work.

GSA also is requesting $15 million for a project at the Byron White U.S. Courthouse at 1832 Stout St. in Denver.
