The Chateau (Chateau Apartments)
Denver County
The 1921 building is an important local variation of the early 20th century courtyard apartment house. The Chateau reflects an important stage in the development of the inner city housing patterns-away from the single-family house and toward a more affordable, community-oriented, urban arrangement maintaining turn-of-the-century standards for natural lighting, ventilation, and privacy.
The Chateau (Chateau Apartments)
The Chateau is an eclectic mix of Tudor, Craftsman, and Chateauesque styles, with its false half-timbering, verge boards, bracketed eaves, multi-pane windows, and stucco finish all exhibiting a high degree of physical integrity. The interior of the building preserves its original floor plan of fifty apartments. Most of the apartments retain their original built-ins and interior windows to the public corridor.
