A developer is planning a 17-story hotel and condo tower on the site of a former Burger King at 15th and Stout streets, Denverinfill.com reported Monday.

The tower, planned by Ranko Mocevic, president of Hotel Gold Crown Champa LLC, would have 264 hotel rooms on floors three through 14 and 12 condominiums on floors 15 through 17.

The tower, being designed by Oz Architecture, could open in 2010.

"The site has certainly been underutilized," with only a parking lot and small restaurants, including the Burger King and Asian restaurants, said Ken Schroeppel, an urban planner with Matrix Design and author of the Denverinfill.com blog.

"This is the same block with the Spire, so it's bringing a lot of density to the area," Schroeppel said.

The 41-story, $175 million Spire condo project is under construction at 891 14th St.

Mocevic also owns the block at 15th and Champa streets that includes Tarantula Billiards and a small parking lot, where he originally planned the tower, according to Denverinfill.com.
