Summary
$450,000 in Denver Downtown Development Authority funding was requested in January for an Immersive Empire venue planned for the ground floor of Tabor Center at 1147 16th St.
The $2.3 million project would fill a 5,500-square-foot space last occupied by Corner Bakery Cafe and add a mirror maze, infinity room, golf simulator, metaverse theater and other short-visit attractions.
A spokesman said the company has not yet signed a lease, and the DDDA board has not publicly discussed the request.
Immersive Empire is preparing to open later this month in Lafayette inside the 50,000-square-foot Bounce Empire, where $24 admission covers five attractions with more than 30 games.
The request joins a wider scramble for downtown incentive money, including a $35 million University of Colorado Foundation bid and a $240,000 restaurant proposal.
