There was a time, not that long ago, when Capitol Hill in Denver had many ’50s/’60s apartment buildings with similar original color schemes such as this. Sadly, they have been all painted beige and neutralized.

This building, over in the same former University of Colorado hospital area as the previous two posts, still has it’s original coloring. I am going to take a wild shot in the dark and date this building from around 1965.

This building also features a wonderful inviting concrete sheel entranceway.

I have to wonder if this shell is the work of Denver engineer Milo Ketchum.

Just came back from watching this amazing documentary at the Denver Art Musuem as part of the Design Onscreen series of films.
