New Hope Network, Sovrn Holdings to move into renovated east Boulder space
BOULDER — Construction is underway on a 60,000-square-foot renovation of and addition to an old warehouse building in Flatiron Park in east Boulder that when completed will house employees of Penton’s New Hope Network and Sovrn Holdings, two companies already in Boulder.
The building at 5541 Central, owned by Goff Capital Partners LP, will be called The Loading Dock. Designer OZ Architecture is reusing the former warehouse and a loading dock that will serve as an elevated boardwalk that connects to the indoor office. OZ Architecture has offices in Boulder, Denver and Colorado Springs. Boulder-based Quinlan Construction Inc. is the general contractor for the project.
New Hope Network, which provides services to businesses in the healthy lifestyle products industry, will move from its downtown headquarters at 1401 Pearl St. and occupy 30,000 square feet. Tech firm Sovrn Holdings, which helps publishers grow their businesses on the Web, will move from its offices at 1750 29th St. and will occupy 30,000 square feet.

Both companies will be leasing space.
The renovation is incorporating cross-laminated timber, which is made from engineered wood panels laminated together in alternating directions and has the look of heavy, old-growth lumber. Using cross-laminated timber offers waste reduction and environmental benefits because it is sourced using sustainable forestry practices and the boards are precisely pre-cut, which creates less material waste. The pieces arrive organized and numbered, allowing the building to be assembled on site. The primary structure of The Loading Dock will be erected in approximately one day later this month, according to spokeswoman Cori Keeton Pope.
The project also is incorporating photovoltaic roof panels, and energy-saving mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems.
