The Wonder View Tower.

The historic tourist attraction remains one of the highest points between Denver and a number of American cities, and attracted tourists and locals alike to ascend its heights throughout the years. The HSA is the first step in a larger grassroots preservation effort to restore the tower to its former glory, and to possibly re-open it to the public as an attraction and historic building once more.

This site is listed in the Colorado State Register of Historic Properties.
