AP teamed with Gilmore Construction on this major historic renovation and system update of Denver Public School’s historic North High School, originally built in 1911. The Beaux-Arts style building features an entry with recessed arched portals, Ionic columns, pediments, quoins and a roof-top balustrade. The structure is a designated Denver Historic Landmark and on the National Register of Historic Places. The new construction project included restoring the building’s historic features, such as uncovering original press-metal ceilings, revealing original handrails hidden by years of paint, exposing and refinishing hardwood floors and regrouting and repairing tiles. Classrooms have been renovated to maintain historical aspects while integrating a 21st century learning environment.
