Stuart Buchanan Antiques

 

TUART BUCHANAN, LTD.
1626-31 Wazee Street
Denver, Colorado
Warehouse and Historic Renovation
1988
45,000 SF
Cost: $750,000
The Italianate Revival building was originally built for the Peters Paper Company in two phases. Designed
by Gove and Walsh,
noted for Union Station and The Sugar Building, this four-story warehouse was
erected in 1899.

 

A five-story addition was completed in 1915.
BlueSky Studio restored this historic structure to meet rehabilitation standards so that, upon completion, the building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. In addition, the renovation was designed to take advantage of the unusual floor alignment between the structures creating five-floor levels open to one
another.

The showrooms on the first and second levels and the offices occupying the third level mezzanine
are within view of each other, reinforcing a public circulation path of discovery (without the necessity of a
new elevator). This openness provides a visual connection from above.

The original Wazee Street storefronts were uncovered behind pre-cast panels installed in the 1960s.
Adjacent storefronts were rebuilt to the same profiles. Upper story operable windows were repaired and re-glazed. Distressed masonry was re-pointed or repaired. New
fire stairs, mechanical and electrical systemswere installed and fire sprinklers were reconfigured as needed.
