Bonnie Brae Tavern Torn Down For New Multifamily Development

As the iconic Bonnie Brae Tavern comes down after nearly 90 years of serving the Denver community, the landscape along University Boulevard is transforming. In its place, Alpine Investments and Revesco Properties are developing “Akin,” a boutique, 46-unit apartment complex featuring underground parking and ground-floor retail. Slated for completion in spring 2027, this project follows other successful Akin developments across Denver’s urban neighborhoods, including Berkeley and the Golden Triangle. With its proximity to walkable amenities, parks, and retail, Bonnie Brae was a natural fit for the next phase of Alpine and Revesco’s vision for modern, community-oriented living.
