Rocky Mountain
Warehouse Lofts is located just one block south of Coors Field,
one of the most convenient locations for enjoying all the amenities
that Lower Downtown Denver (LoDo) has to offer. It was one the
last buildings built between the Great Depression and the downtown
boom of the 1980's, and was initially used as a merchandise
mart for a variety of tenants in the downtown Denver commerce
hub.
The architecture
of the building reflects the Art Deco style of architect Montana
Fallis who also designed the Oxford Annex next to the Oxford
Hotel in Lodo. The building is unique because of the large round
concrete columns that create a presence in the space of otherwise
open loft floorplans.
On the back
half of the building, balconies were added in the during the
early 1990's renovation providing exterior space that house
amazing urban gardens in the summer months.
Some of
the many features of the Rocky Mountain Warehouse Lofts include:
- Spectacular
city, stadium and mountain views
- Oversized
double pane windows
- Exposed
brick walls and round concrete columns
- Upgraded
kitchens in many units
- Large
balconies and terraces on back loft residences
