Denver’s oldest greenhouse is growing.
City Floral Garden Center is planning to turn the former dry cleaners at 6000 E. Colfax Ave. into a “retail fulfillment” outpost, according to building permit documents submitted to the city.
Starfire Holdings LLC, controlled by City Floral owners Matthew and Candace Wickstrom, said in the documents that the project requires “minimal reconfiguration and renovation” to the existing 4,300-square-foot building, which dates to the 1950s. Janco Designs is the architect on the project.
The Wickstroms did not respond to requests for comment.
The building sits on 0.34 acres and is one block over from City Floral’s greenhouse and supply shop at 1440 Kearney St. in the Montclair neighborhood.
The building most recently housed Platinum Cleaners, but has been vacant for years. Mark and Kristy Dym, the owners of pizzeria Marco’s Coal Fired, bought the property in 2018 for $635,000 before selling it to the Wickstroms 18 months later for $1.2 million.
