"The only remaining older stand-alone Denver neighborhood theaters, not located in in- door malls, that still show movies are the Esquire (originally called the Hiawatha when it opened in 1927, and reopened as the Esquire in 1942)in Capitol Hill.... Richard L. Crowther Crowther designed the Esquire Theater on the corner of Sixth and Downing, which is noticeable as an austere square box. There are no domes, Moorish arches, flying carpets, projected clouds, arabesques, Muqarnas, wall masks, Mesoamerican glyphs, Mayan imagery, terra cotta in polychrome, fantastic art motifs, or elaborate themes. It is unornamented Plain Jane." ^[1] ^[2] ^[3] 30 feet (9.1 m) equivalent to $10,295 in 2023)
