Do you have your Evan button yet? People in Downtown Denver are definitely geeked over the news that local developer Evan Makovsky was finally able to break the Cook family’s decades-long stranglehold on the Fontius Building, Downtown’s #1 eyesore.
First reported at the always-interesting Westword blog, Makovsky’s success in acquiring the building and his plans to give the Fontius a full-blown makeover have made him a very popular man in Downtown. So popular, in fact, that the folks at the Denver Pavilions have produced a souvenir button to celebrate the occasion and honor Mr. Makovsky:
The buttons are free and are being distributed by the Downtown Denver Partnership. Stop in at the Partnership’s office, 2nd floor of the Kittredge Building at 16th and Glenarm (main entrance is between the Paramount and Marlowe’s) and get your Evan button while supplies last!
