Positioned just outside of the Central Business District of Downtown Denver, is the landmark 1770 Sherman Street, currently known as El Jebel temple.
Constructed in 1907, this historic marvel has been identified as one of Denver’s top five architecturally significant structures, and is now available to own for $7,000,000.
Since 1907, this building has been occupied by the Ancient Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine(The Shriners), The Scottish Rite Masons and later to Eulipions, Inc who converted it into a catering and event facility in 1995.
Sprawled across a gross leasable area of 58,030 square feet, the building is nestled on a 12,500 square foot lot and is zoned PUD – Historical. With its robust structure, it reflects a high level of architectural integrity unparalleled in many contemporary buildings.
Two opulent ballrooms, an interior balcony, and the building's crown jewel - a massive auditorium/amphitheater on the top two levels - augment its appeal.
This magnificent property houses 12 unique rooms, each marked by distinct architectural styles and finishes that add to its historical value.
The first floor showcases a Turkish Style Reading Room, Flemish style billiard room, and a gothic style grill room. Each room presents a different epoch in architectural design
A Japanese Style Ladies Dressing Room and Alhambra Style Ball and Banquet Room can be found on the second floor and third floors, with exceptional design details.
The Fourth and Fifth floor present a spectacular Egyptian style auditorium and Upper Promenade.
Preservation of the original details is evident, with the rooms retaining elements from floor to ceiling, including walls, columns, window frames, doors, door plates, knobs, and radiators. Even though some rooms have undergone changes over the years, they still retain a part of their original charm.
A testament to its antiquity, Denver’s oldest functioning elevator connects each level, adding to the building's charm!
Senior Broker Associate at Colorado Realty Network, Maytal Hess, was taken aback by the property's magnificence. She stated, "Touring this building is unreal. Every level surpasses the last. The degree of architectural integrity is mind-blowing. I believe this building has the potential to become Denver's premier event and music venue."
1770 Sherman Street is not just a property; it's a slice of Denver's architectural history waiting to be reimagined and appreciated. It stands as a testament to the city's rich past and presents a unique opportunity for those seeking a distinctive space in the heart of Denver.
