A Rich History
The building was designed by the prominent Denver architect James Sudler in 1959. Among other Denver buildings, Sudler was involved in the design of the U.S. Courthouse, Rogers Federal Building, and, partnering with Gio Ponti, the extension to the Denver Art Museum.
Flexible to Meet a Changing Reality
Who goes to the office five days a week? Suites range from 550 to 4,850+ square feet and offer tenants flexibility in term and frequency of use to meet today’s office user needs. This includes the ability to lease for specific days of the week so users can pick a schedule that meets their less than 5-day a week office use. In addition, because they are move-in ready and fully equipped, terms can range from very short to multi-year. Reach out if you’d like to learn more about leasing at The Sudler.
Inside the Project
The building at 1576 Sherman had clearly seen better days. The original architectural sunshades that once wrapped the building had been removed and were lost to time (almost, more on that later). The interior had been added to and subtracted from and turned into a demonstration of 1990’s bland beige office. However, the concrete building structure still stood bold and the wrapping of windows on all floors putting you among the treetop canopy was magnetizing. We took a chance and went all out to return the building to its glory. We completed gutted the building to its foundation and concrete structure, removing horrid office walls and dividers and old, inefficient systems, opening the space to allow light to penetrate throughout.
To allow the light to stream through, we leveraged the use of glazing, even between office suites, and added operable windows to allow tenants to open their space to the outdoors and the surrounding tree canopy.
The interiors include beautiful walnut finishes, curved glass, operable windows, lounge areas, custom lighting, curated art and wallpaper, luxuriously furnished offices and kitchenettes. The aluminum rings spanning the 2nd and 3rd floors are a modern homage to Sudler’s concrete disc sunshades that once wrapped the building. And much to our delight we managed to locate a small piece of the original sunshades which now hang proudly as an art piece on the stairwell walls.
