McPhee & McGinnity Building

Denver County

Designed by the architectural firm of Fisher and Fisher, as the general office and warehouse for the McPhee & McGinnity Company, this flat roofed brick faced industrial building reflects the Second Renaissance Revival style in its numerous evenly spaced arched window openings.  The original two-story portion was constructed in 1913, and there is a 1919 one-story addition.

McPhee & McGinnity Building 

Founded in 1869 by Charles D. McPhee, John J. McGinnity joined the company in 1879.  By the 1920s the company had become one of the leading building materials suppliers within fourteen western states.  During the mid-1930s, the Denver Fire Clay Company relocated its offices to the building.
