It was designed by architects Lang & Pugh. Up to the early 1950s the church "boasted a castellated tower and turret at the fro»t entry. Due to structural problems the upper story of the tower fell: the turret suffered extensive damage and was removed, with a buttress added in its place for support and aesthetic balance. The architects were Lang and Pugh. Lang was a celebrated architect of the eclectic style in Denver."[2]
