Golden, CO – Wednesday, April 8th, 2026

Golden, Colorado — Digby Commercial Advisors is pleased to announce the successful sale of a 50,646-square-foot R&D and laboratory facility located at 16194 W 45th Drive in Golden, Colorado.

The buyer, the Colorado School of Mines, acquired the property as part of its continued expansion to support research, innovation, and academic growth within Jefferson County.

Situated within the highly desirable Coors Technology Center, the property features specialized laboratory infrastructure, flexible design, and immediate access to major transportation corridors, including Interstate 70 and Highway 58.

“This transaction underscores the continued institutional demand for specialized R&D and laboratory space in Jefferson County,” said Tanner Digby, President of Digby Commercial Advisors. “With limited supply and increasing demand from both public and private sector users, we are seeing strong upward pressure on well-located, high-quality flex and lab assets.”

The West Denver submarket, particularly Golden, has emerged as a key hub for advanced manufacturing, aerospace, environmental sciences, and research-driven users. The acquisition further reinforces the area’s position as a leading innovation corridor along Colorado’s Front Range.

Digby Commercial Advisors represented the seller in the transaction.
