If you’ve ever visited Denver’s 16th Street Mall, you’re sure to be familiar with the iconic clock tower that stands on the corner of Skyline Park.
But have you ever wondered just what this historical landmark is? I know I’d wondered about it. Why is it there on its own? When was it built? Was it ever part of a larger building? What is it actually called? Most importantly, I wondered if it was open to the public and was it possible to go up to the top.
Well, I’ve got answers for you, starting with the big one - yes, it’s open to visitors!
I checked out this Denver landmark recently with my friend Daniela who was visiting from Australia and it was one of my favorite things that we did during her stay. We took in the views over Denver, learned all about the history of the tower, and took some pretty cool photos.
Let’s take a look…
