Stanley Arms
Denver County
After retiring in 1938 from a distinguished career as a medical researcher at Johns Hopkins University, Dr. Florence Rena Sabin returned to Denver and established her home in the Stanley Arms.
While living and working there, she authored Colorado’s 1947 health legislation, created a program of public health education, and brought about a major reduction in Denver’s tuberculosis mortality rate. The building is an excellent example of early International Style architecture in Colorado. Denver architect Walter H. Simon designed the building in 1937, incorporating Moderne influences with the International Style.
