Bethany Swedish Evangelical Lutheran Church (Denver Gospel Church)

Denver County

The 1910 red brick building is a well-preserved example of an early 20th century Gothic Revival style church which continues to blend well with its surrounding urban residential neighborhood.

The vertical characteristics of the style are exhibited in its steeply pitched roof and numerous pointed arches.  Known as the Denver Gospel Church since 1957, the exterior features a prominent corner bell tower.  The adjacent 1913 brick parsonage, a well-preserved example of a Craftsman style bungalow, enhances the architectural significance of the property.

SHF funding helped address issues causing water damage to the building.
