Fleming-Hanington House

A rare local example of a temple front Greek Revival style residence, the two-story house was constructed in 1893, reportedly for Josiah M. Fleming, a general manager of the Daniels and Fisher Dry Goods Store. Four fluted columns support the pedimented portico which dominates the facade. The walls are of cast stone fabricated to imitate marble. One of the more prominent residents was John B. Hanington, president of the Mountain Motors Company, who lived there from 1914 until 1924. Hanington’s civic activities included service as a member of the Denver School Board and terms as president of the Colorado Museum of Natural History and the Colorado State Historical Society.
