2. Proud History
There is a lot of history in the whole of Lowry Neighborhood. It was then an Arapahoe camp in the mid-1800. In 1888 a Christian military school was built on it, which was later burned to the ground in a chemistry lab mishap in 1902. Up until 1932, Lowry served as a sanatorium site for those seeking the benefits of the area’s climate. In 1918 an air force base was built on it and named it after Lt. Francis B. Lowry, a photographer who was killed in combat in 1918. The Denver airbase served as the summer White House for President Dwight Eisenhower and his wife. It also became a publicity stop for Charles Lindbergh after his flight across the Atlantic. The airbase was officially closed in 1994 due to airstrip issues. Many buildings of the then airbase were repurposed, and the land re-planned into the community of Lowry that now gives new life to the Denver metro area.
Lowry takes pride in its history. Efforts to preserve it alongside the modern and fast-paced development of the neighborhood have been pursued. The repurposed buildings and sites of the then airbase now house the following popular leisure sites of Lowry:

• Wings Over the Rockies Air and Space Museum – Formerly Hangar 1, it now exhibits warplanes from various eras. It’s also home to decorative art and outer space travel exhibits. The exhibit educates and inspires people of all ages about aviation and space endeavors of the past, present, and future. It is a great place to visit with family and friends. It’s ideal for children’s excursion programs and even for corporate events.

• Lowry Beer Garden – Formerly Hangar 2, it is now a terrific place to grab a bite to eat or enjoy a cold beverage. It showcases special events all year round, giving Lowry an interesting leisure life. The Beer Garden keeps life in Lowry interesting with an array of special events all year round.

• John Hand Theatre – Formerly a fire station truck bay of the then airbase, it is now a renowned 82-seat theatre, tucked away in the Colorado Free University, and a most frequent events place featuring nine performances a year from Firehouse Theater Company and the Spotlight Theatre Company.
From a strictly military installation that served as an aircraft hangar, training ground of military airmen, and strategic military base, Lowry now becomes the most popular and unique mixed-use community that offers an amenity-rich living environment without having to sacrifice close proximity to the culture and history. It is fast becoming the most affluent neighborhood in all of Denver proper.
