The John G. and Helen Kerr House, built in 1924-1925, is a good example of the Italian Renaissance Revival style that was popular during the early 20th century.  Located on a large corner lot, the two-story brick residence reflects the extensive and artistic use of Colorado travertine marble. 

Constructed in 1891, the 2½-story residence is a good residential example of the Richardsonian Romanesque style.  Rough-dressed sandstone walls extend into the gable ends of a steeply pitched gable roof.  Conical roofs top a full-height rounded bay on the south side and a round tower at the north end of the east facade. 

Constructed as a red brick, four story, two part commercial block in 1887, the building is significant in the area of commerce for its association with one of Colorado’s leading dry goods retailers.

This 1951 Denver house is believed to be the city’s best example of the International Style in a residential building.  

The Jonas brothers established a national reputation as taxidermists and furriers.  Initially the company’s furrier trade was secondary to taxidermy, but after the 1940s private clients began to buy more furs than taxidermy services.  The firm continued to do taxidermy work for museums for the entire time of its existence. 

This park on a bluff affords a view of nearly 200 miles of the front range of the Rocky Mountains, as well as the entire city of Denver.  

Reported to be the first multi-level building constructed of reinforced concrete west of the Mississippi, the eight-story structure is topped with a penthouse level.  Designed by Montana Fallis and John Stein, the building was constructed in 1907 by the Dome Investment Co. for Claude Boettcher in order to promote the capabilities of his Colorado Portland Cement Company. 

The 1959 aircraft hangar embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type and method of construction – a thin shell concrete barrel vault.  Thin shell construction was popular primarily from World War II through the 1960s.  The building is also notable for its early use of post tensioning to control structure behavior and cracking.

Hungarian Freedom and Alamo Placita Parks illustrate the early plan to develop parks facing each other on opposite sides of Speer Boulevard and Cherry Creek.

Located west of Cheesman Park, the district includes 24 large residences constructed between 1895 and 1920.  Relatively simple versions of the Foursquare style are represented as well as richly detailed examples of other popular styles of the period such as the Colonial Revival, Georgian Revival, and Renaissance Revival.
