The Denver Landmark Preservation Ordinance became law in 1967. The effort for historic preservation in Denver got its impetus in the early 1970’s with an attempt to prevent the proposed demolition of the Moffet Mansion. Despite the best efforts the mansion came down, but the idea of historic preservation was firmly established. As of now, fifty Historic Districts have been established and 329 structures have been landmarked.
