The Daniels & Fisher Tower is a distinctive landmark in Denver, Colorado, in the United States. Built as part of the Daniels & Fisher department store in 1910, it was the tallest between the Mississippi River and the state of California at the time of construction, at a height of 325 feet (99 m). The building was designed by the architect Frederick Sterner and modeled after The Campanile (St. Mark's Bell Tower) at the Piazza San Marco in Venice, Italy.〔(Daniels & Fisher Tower - Building information ), emporis.com〕 The 20-floor clock tower has clock faces on all four sides. Daniels & Fisher were later bought out by the May Company in 1958, and the store vacated the tower. When the store was demolished (ca. 1971), the tower was saved and renovated into lofts and businesses in 1981. It stands today in downtown Denver. The basement level of the tower now hosts ''Lannie's Clocktower Cabaret'', entertainment venue. The tower was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1969. A 2½ ton bell occupies the top two floors of the building, above the observation deck. == Gallery == Image:Daniels & Fisher Tower doorway arch.jpg|Entrance from 16th street File:D&FTowerLobbyCeiling.jpg|Ceiling in the lobby Image:D&F_Tower.JPG|Tower from 17th Street File:Daniels & Fisher Tower, Denver, CO, 29 September, 2006.JPG|Tower viewed from 16th Street, looking north File:Dh130414-144645.jpg|Original clock works File:Dh130414-150853.jpg|Interior view of southeast clock face File:Dh130414-152358.jpg|Bell and striker File:Dh130414-155425.jpg|Sconces on first floor File:Dh130414-171049.jpg|View from north-west (16th Street) File:A ground view of the D&F Tower in Denver.jpg|A ground view of the tower 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Daniels & Fisher Tower」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
