Flower-Vaile House
Denver County
Designed by Balcomb and Rice, the 1889 two-story Queen Anne style house is an interesting example of late 19th century residential architecture. Constructed of pressed brick, with rock faced stone trim, the facade features elaborate porches on both floors and a modified Palladian window on the first floor.
The original owner was John S. Flower, an early Denver real estate developer. Joel F. Vaile, a prominent Denver lawyer and authority on mining, general business, and railroad law, purchased the property in 1890.
