Explore the free 16th Street MallRide bus route, which terminates across the street from Colorado’s spectacularly-sited State Capitol building. Opened in 1894, the Capitol is surmounted by its distinctive gold dome. Its upper stories provide spectacular views of the Rocky Mountains, the city of Denver, and surrounding plains. The Capitol’s interior spaces are resplendent in Rose Onyx and other rare materials, and decorated with stained glass and other works of art. After visiting “Mr. Brown’s Attic,” an exhibition space detailing the building’s construction, tour participants can linger or return via the MallRide in time for the morning’s meetings.
FREE. No advance registration required. Meet at 7:30am.
