Denver's City and County Building is a historic building in the Denver Civic Center, in the Civic Center Historic District.
It is an old pre-1920 historic building, built to house Denver government bureaus.
It was built in 1932, facing the Colorado State Capitol, at the west end of Civic Center Park, at 1437 Bannock Street. It is Greek Revival in style. It was kept low in height to preserve Capitol's view of mountains.

Built between 1913-1916, after the previous City Hall was destroyed in the 1906 earthquake. Arthur Brown Jr., architect. Several years ago they added an outdoor lighting system so they can change the colors of the building at night.
Saw Michael Franti couple of weeks ago and tried out a friends point and shoot camera, the Panasonic DC-LX100M2. While the concert was freakin' awesome, the camera was not. Probably because I am spoiled with my DSLR. It had problems keeping up in the low light environment and focusing. Or maybe I just did not know how to use it.
This is Michael Franti's guitarist, J. Bowman, who in my opinion is underrated. During the performance, both Michael and J. walked into the audience to perform and sing. This group of musicians care about their fans and always give 110%. If you get a chance check them out. As Michael says, "Stay Human." B
