A solid brick structure built when Grover Cleveland was president is now up for sale in lower downtown Denver.
Located at 1601 17th Street, the three-story structure, known as the Grand Central Building, was built in 1894 and underwent a substantial renovation nearly a century later in the 1980s.
Measuring just over 35,000 square feet, the structure, classified as a Class B building, includes residential space on the upper two floors and retail space on the ground level.
That retail space has been occupied for more than two decades by the Italian restaurant Mangiamo Pronto, and before that was the home to the Common Grounds coffee house.
In the earliest decades of its existence, it was a retailer offering a wide array of pump valves, rubber belting, and pneumatic tool hoses.
The structure sits on a less than one-acre space on a block populated with multi-story historic structures built mostly in the 1890s.
The listing realtor for the property, which has an asking price of $14.8 million, is Rex Renfrew LLC.
