This hot reservation-only event sold out in days. Thanks(!) to all of you who made our first ONE PAST 5 event a smashing success...and to those of you who missed the list, stay posted!

February 3, 2009- Co-chairs Holly Kylberg & Tom Lorz along with Historic Denver & National Trust for Historic Preservation hosted the first annual One Past 5 happy hour for young professionals on the top four floors of the D & F Tower on the 16th Street Mall.
The fashionable Daniels and Fisher Department Store was the crown jewel of the Denver skyline for many years until it fell into ruin after the 1950’s when the May Company gained ownership and closed the store. All that remains of the D&F flagship store is its grand tower that has become one of the most character defining elements of the Denver skyline.
Our first One Past 5 offered a rare opportunity for young professionals to explore one of Denver’s most visible yet hidden icons that survived the wrecking ball due to preservation efforts in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Attendees experienced a once in a lifetime chance to drink wine behind the clock faces, listen to music on the observation deck and see the top of the tower in the Crow’s Nest.
Don't miss the next event! If you have any questions, contact Heather Quiroga at 303.534.5288 ext. 5 or hquiroga@historicdenver.org
