The proposed development at 2206 Pearl Street is set to redefine urban living in Boulder. This innovative project will introduce 45 efficiency-living apartments, each just 300 square feet, equipped with space-saving robotic furniture to maximize functionality. The design also emphasizes communal spaces, bike storage, and sustainable transportation options, with a strong focus on reducing the environmental footprint.

What sets this project apart is its ambition to become Boulder’s first “zero-carbon” housing development. Powered by renewable energy sources such as wind and solar, the building’s construction also considers the embodied carbon in its materials. This commitment to sustainability aligns with Boulder’s broader goals of increasing housing density while minimizing environmental impact.

The project, led by stok Investment Group, has navigated the complex regulatory landscape with guidance from Trestle Strategy Group. Danica Powell, founder of Trestle Strategy Group and consultant for the developers, emphasized the unique nature of this development, noting “This is providing a different type of housing than what has traditionally been seen down on Pearl Street and downtown on East Pearl.”  The project places an emphasis on workforce housing and its innovative approach to transportation and mobility.

As Boulder continues to evolve, projects like the one at 2206 Pearl Street offer a glimpse into the future of sustainable urban living—where smart design meets environmental responsibility.
