Moffat Station
The other surviving Denver depot, now the front door of a retirement home
Built in 1906 as the terminal for David Moffat's Denver, Northwestern and Pacific Railway, the line that eventually punched the Moffat Tunnel through the Divide. Architect Edwin Moorman gave it a Georgian Revival brick front with a curved portico, and it is one of only two railroad stations left standing in Denver (the other is Union Station, three blocks away). After decades as a moving-company warehouse and produce depot it was restored and, in 2015, absorbed as the entrance pavilion of a senior-living community. It has been on the National Register since 1976. You cannot go in, but it is worth the two-minute detour on the walk from Union Station to Commons Park.
Why go. A five-minute history stop on the way to the river.
Read the HABS plaque, then keep walking north on 15th to the Millennium Bridge; do not try the door.
