Would focus on the following:Zoning, special/conditional use variance process, planned zoning, Engineering- building, traffic, soil compaction, water flow, Permitting, fire suppression, fire hydrants, storm pounds, storm sewers, ADA,     Governmental- soil erosion, floodplain, wetlands,Leasing, NNN, CAM,     Valuation approaches.  

You can also get stove-top fire suppressants that are set off by flame.  

As soon as you pop that can of worms, be prepared to go fishing for existing issues with the property that may need to be brought up to current IBC, Residential may maen proper handrails and accessibility egresses, whereas Commercial may be a bigger pill to swallow going so far as sprinkler and fire suppression systems.

@Jonathan Holmes, @Joe Davalos and @Michael Ablan There are a number of sites where you can direct people to get off mailing lists.The FTC has an informational site about all sorts of unwanted contact: https://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0262-stopping-unsolicited-mail-phone-calls-and-emailBut the place to go for opting out of mail is The Direct Marketing Association: http://www.directmail.com/mail_preference/Most professional and ethical list compilers will run their lists the the DMA suppression each month as part of the standard list hygiene.

Denver Fire is really making things hard around town and just don't seem to understand how the financial impact & timing of having to install fire suppression systems can really kill a great project.Good luck, I'm going to try to do a drive by of your project. 

They're going to need a certain water tap size and electrical requirements, fire suppression etc which will all hinge on whether they're a brew only,  a tasting room, a restaurant, size of their tanks, etc. the beauty of commercial is that the tenant takes on the burden of build out like that... of course the landlord pays by giving them rent credits.

We are also ensuring prices in the neighborhood aren't suppressed due to a RE "run."

Now, I can do a lot of things with the space, however, as it is dry, has a loading dock, is at least temperature controlled (might be climate controlled as the building has been used for document storage for a decade), and has a dry fire suppression system installed and working.

For instance, maybe you discover that the rents have not gone up in the past few years and/or they have been deliberately suppressed, for whatever reason.

Because rates have been suppressed for 10 years, investors have lost the ability to accurately assess risk, and investments have been pursued that otherwise may not have.
