WALNUT STREET LOFTS
(BENJAMIN MOORE PAINT LOFTS)
Denver, Colorado, USA
Owner: St. Charles Town Company
Program: 65,000 sf, 49 units
Built in 1921, this building is part of the Ballpark Historic District. Located on the northeast corner of Broadway and Walnut, the building was used for Benjamin Moore paint products.
Staff architects worked with the City of Denver to rezone the property and with the Denver Landmark Commission to guide the exterior design of this historic building. Interior spaces radiate from the central elevator in a starburst pattern, maximizing each loft’s exposure to the building’s windows. The industrial materials and structure of the building were maintained to create true industrial urban lofts.*
*This project was undertaken when Tom Obermeier was the CEO of OZ Architecture.
