Final photo of Denver's East High School. It's a big building, stretching over 450 feet (135 meters) in length. This photo shows a bit more of the two symmetrical wings, which feature mid-wing octagonal towers that interrupt the long horizontal run of the wings and serve as secondary nodes and vertical accents to the central tower.

The building is also situated within a formal site plan at the foot of East 16th Avenue, with the 162-foot (49-meter) central tower being a visual terminus that can been seen from quite a distance away. The building fronts on City Park Esplanade, a City Beautiful-era landscaped parkway that connects Colfax Avenue to the southwest entrance to City Park, directly north of the school.
