Eppich Apartments

Designed by leading Denver architect Walter L. Rice, the Eppich Apartments are an excellent example of Craftsman style architecture. Built by prominent businessman Louis F. Eppich in 1909, the apartment building reflects the simplicity of design associated with the Arts and Crafts Movement, which rebelled against the excess of the Victorian era. Although it has suffered disrepair and neglect in recent years, the building remains a significant representative of a social movement that paved the way for multi-family housing.
