Denver’s Architectural Styles
The Leonard Leonard office at 420 Downing
This is a popular housing style that dates from the second half of the 19th century. The details were often Italianate or Queen Anne inspired and featured porches with spindle work detailing, L shaped or gable front plans with cornice brackets. Basically Victorians were the working class or middle class versions of the Queen Anne with simpler details. These are very popular in Denver |
