Daniels & Fisher Tower
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Daniels & Fisher (D&F) Tower is a distinctive Denver, Colorado landmark. Built as part of the Daniels & Fisher department store in 1910, it was the tallest structure west of the Mississippi at the time. Modeled after The Campanile (St. Mark's Bell Tower) at the Piazza San Marco in Venice, Italy, the clock tower has clock faces on all four sides. Daniels & Fisher were later bought out by the May Company, and in the 1950s and 60s it was known as the May D&F building. When the building was demolished (ca. 1980), the tower was saved. It stands today in downtown Denver.
The basement level of the D&F tower now hosts one of the finest entertainment venues in Denver: Lannie's Clocktower Cabaret.
