This is East High School in Denver, built in 1925. Inspired by Independence Hall in Philadelphia, the building blends Italian Renaissance Revival, Collegiate Gothic, and Beaux-Arts features and influences to project a strong civic identity.

This building is a manifestation of the community's belief at the time in the value and importance of public education.
