Created By: Historic Boulder, Inc.
1444 Folsom Street/ Ralph D. Peterson & Associates architect/ International Style/ built 1958
The Harvest Manor Apartments were part of a large development that includes Arapahoe Village Shopping Center, the Harvest House Hotel, and tennis and swimming recreation facilities. The building is a good example of the International Style made famous in Europe. Defining characteristics are the economical industrial construction techniques, the horizontal composition, flat roofs, a central entry between the two wings of residences, and the generous balconies. Exterior alterations made this year (2023) include the removal of the original balcony railings and modifications to curved entry screen wall, both character defining features.
Status: In 2023 a demolition permit application was submitted for the Harvest Manor Apartments building. The application has been forwarded to the Landmarks Board for a decision.
