Last crawled date: 2 years, 11 months ago

The Denver Place complex is located in the downtown area of Denver, Colorado and is comprised mostly of four high-rise buildings spanning two city blocks. The Denver Place North and South Towers take up the southeastern block. They were developed in 1981 by Devco Property Inc. from design by Marvin E. Knedler & Assoc. Architects, P.C. The South Tower is the tallest, reaching 416 feet with 34 floors, while the North Tower is 285 feet tall with 23 floors. The two towers are elongated hexagons made of silver grey aluminum panels contrasted by dark grey reflective glass. They sit diagonally from one another, connected by a six story terraced building. At street level is a retail mall that includes stores such as Cookies by Design, Dependable Cleaners, Denver Place Athletic Club, Le Peep Restaurant, Baja Fresh, Compass Bank, Starbucks Coffee, and Vision Care. The building has won many awards including the 2005 Denver Metro Building Owners And Managers Association Building of the Year Award in the Earth Award category and the Gold LEED-EB Label for its green design. The northwestern block holds the Granite Tower, built in 1983. Also known as the Plaza Tower, this skyscraper stands at 398 feet tall with 31 floors. At the north end of this block is first and only Ritz-Carlton of Denver, formerly the Embassy Suites. The building is 390 feet tall and has 38 floors.
