Every December, the building is adorned with thousands of lights and decorations, transforming it into a festive spectacle for the city's annual holiday lighting event.
Completed in 1932, the building showcases a blend of Neoclassical and Beaux-Arts architectural styles, reflecting the grandeur of early 20th-century civic architecture.
The building houses a large mural by artist Allen Tupper True, depicting the history and development of the American West.
The building was designed as part of the 1906 Civic Center plan, which aimed to create a unified and aesthetically pleasing civic space in downtown Denver.
