Jacques Benedict, the esteemed early 20th Century Denver architect, graduate of the cole des Beaux-Arts in Paris, produced nearly 80 Beaux Arts style buildings in the Rocky Mountain region. The classical proportions, restrained ornamentation and unmatched beauty of Benedict's designs continue to serve as an enduring source of delight and inspiration.
