Height: 714'
Stories: 56
Year: 1984

Denver's tallest skyscraper has been standing proud as the tallest building in Colorado and the entire Mountain West region of the United States since its completion in 1984.
Cast of smooth sardinian granite, the 56-story tower was completed in 1984 during Denver's Energy Boom, that famous real estate building frenzy of the 1980s that pushed most of downtown's skyline into the sky.

Republic Plaza contains 1,239,000 square feet of office space, a significant amount of which is leased to TIAA-CREF, law firms and banks.
