1175 N Emerson St

A mid-century, low-rise condominium block in Denver’s Capitol Hill completed in 1954, the building offers predominantly one- and two-bedroom residences across multiple levels with elevator access. Architecturally it reflects Mid-Century Modern proportions: coved ceilings, large windows, and straightforward masonry facades softened by a central landscaped courtyard. Interiors range from original hardwood and travertine details to extensively modernized units featuring quartz and granite counters, updated plumbing and electrical, radiant-heated tile floors in some homes, built-in storage and pantry spaces. Shared spaces emphasize practical conveniences: a secured lobby with intercom entry, underground/covered garage parking (leased through the HOA), assigned storage lockers, bike racks, laundry facilities, and a landscaped common courtyard with barbecue grill and seating. The HOA typically covers utilities such as water, boiler heat and some common-area electric; evaporative cooling is provided in parts of the building. Pet policies allow owner-occupant pets with restrictions. The building’s location is highly walkable, moments from Cheesman Park, the Colorado Capitol, Whole Foods/Ideal Market, restaurants, and transit, blending a dense urban lifestyle with accessible outdoor green space.
