The 1927 neighborhood movie theater provided several generations of north Denver citizens with an inexpensive local recreational opportunity. 

The Old Highland Business District is comprised of six late 19th century commercial buildings, all that is left of a once thriving business area.  Although the buildings are not outstanding architecturally, they are good examples of commercial architecture from the period and are nicely related to one another. 

The two-story brick Mediterranean style building was designed by Denver architect, Harry W.J. Edbrooke.  It is one of three theaters constructed, owned, and operated by John Thompson and J.A. Goodridge, primary owners of the International Amusement Company, in the fashionable Capitol Hill neighborhood during the 1910s. 

Built in 1924 by prominent Denver architect William Norman Bowman, the Norman is one of Denver’s best preserved examples of a luxury apartment building dating from the 1920s and 30s.  Laid out as two six-story wings set at right angles, the complex contained 48 apartments with nine foot ceilings. 

Denver architect Eugene G. Groves designed and built the all concrete Nordlund House in 1938-39. Groves’ practice spanned five decades, during which he completed noteworthy commissions involving schools, college buildings, government offices, and commercial buildings. 

Constructed in 1891 by Isaac Percival for Thomas Niblock, an Irish immigrant, the terrace is divided in the middle by a stepped cornice and roof porch, which creates two five-unit sections with alternating wood stud and masonry party walls. 

This eclectic, Victorian era apartment was built in 1888-1889 and is a prominent neighborhood landmark at the south end of the San Rafael Historic District.  The building represents a time when terraces and the concept of apartment living were relatively new to residents of Denver. 

The Neusteter Building, a five-story flat roofed commercial building, consists of the 1924 original block and a smaller circa 1952 pre-cast concrete addition.  Featuring a ribbon of black marble around its base and buff colored limestone, it is one of the finest examples of Commercial Style architecture in Denver. 

Built in 1886, the Neff House is a well-executed version of the Queen Anne / Eastlake style.  The primary building material is brick, and there is a profusion of ornately decorated gables, roof forms, and window types.  

The Motor Coach Division Building of the Denver Tramway Company played an important role in the transition from streetcars to gas and diesel powered, rubber-tired, motor coaches, or buses, in the Denver metropolitan region, from 1937 to 1950.
