Site of 2018 Santa Fe explosion on sale for $1.5 million

DENVER — A plot of land at Santa Fe Drive and 4th Avenue that was the site of a massive explosion a year ago has been listed for sale.

The 0.3-acre lot in Denver was listed on real estate website RealLiving for $1.5 million. 

In August 2018, a multiplex that was on the land was leveled in an explosion that injured seven people, two of them critically. 

Todd Norman Perkins, 56, faces attempted first-degree murder charges and first-degree arson charges in connection with that explosion. He is accused of pouring gasoline and damaging natural gas valves throughout the unit at 368 N. Santa Fe Dr.
