Downtown
Boise’s newest development blends the fabric of existing historical buildings
with an extension of the culturally vibrant North End neighborhood. Conveniently
located at 15th Street and Grove, the Linen District currently has a mix of
established retail stores and service oriented businesses. The future plans
for the area will include a unique blend of commercial office space, local and
regional retail stores as well as an urban residential area. The development
will attract the creative professionals who are looking for both an urban workplace
and lifestyle. The District is named after the anchor building of the area,
the old American Linen Building, which occupies the northwest corner of 14th
and Grove Streets, 1402 West Grove Street, in downtown Boise. Redevelopment
is currently underway at two other key buildings. The Furness Building located
at 1407 West Grove and the Goodyear Building located at 1515 West Grove.
The
Linen District will be unlike anything Downtown Boise has seen. From one of
a kind retailers to North End style urban residential living opportunities to
creative office designs to incorporating “green” practices in developing
buildings and infrastructure, this exciting new development will be a catalyst
for future revitalization of the Westside District of Downtown Boise. The Linen
District will be the hub of this expansion along with the proposed new convention
center, Capital Station, and the Capital City Development’s plan for the
major urban space, the 14th Street Village.
