Construction workers perform renovations on the Livestock Exchange Building in Denver on July 17, 2024. Kevin Preblud and Justin Croft stood behind yellow caution tape on Wednesday afternoon in a parking lot in northern Denver and watched as construction workers in hard hats removed old windows — 400 in total — fromIt’s one of the first steps in restoring the 125-year-old building to its former grandeur.
The new concept by the building’s owners is for it to reopen as The Exchange, which is envisioned as a “mercantile and commercial hub.” Construction is expected to wrap up in late 2025, and the hope is to hold the grand opening in January 2026, right before that year’s stock show. As the one-time focal point of the state’s livestock industry, the institution hosted a bank, a newspaper, a barbershop and a radio station, with 200 acres of animal pens surrounding it. The building was constructed in three stages in 1898, 1916 and 1919.The Livestock Exchange Building sits in Denver’s Elyria-Swansea neighborhood and is just east of Globeville — both of which “were actually built by the folks who worked here,” Croft said.
