2007 MAYOR'S DESIGN AWARDS
Awards celebrate innovation, creativity, beauty
 
Artists and city leaders turned out recently for the 3rd annual Mayor’s Design Awards, celebrating and recognizing noteworthy buildings found throughout Denver.
 
“I think great cities are as enriched by many discreet and beautifully designed smaller projects as they are by the bold and grand civic gestures,”  says Mayor John Hickenlooper.  “Every time we do it, I come away with a sense of awe that a city like Denver that seems so, sometimes, on the surface, so placid, so almost normal, can generate and incubate such wonderful subtleties and such intense creativity.”
 
The awards are designed to recognize the small, but great things done by business owners, home owners, and individuals who are adding beauty to Denver’s neighborhoods.
