Don't have time to take a tour? Watch a video about the Region 8 building!
The 1595 Wynkoop building serves as a hallmark of environmental sustainability in the prominent Lower Downtown Historic District location.
Reservations--please read before requesting a tour
We have developed a tour program that will introduce you to the design features, green products, innovative technologies and business practices that make this building a model of sustainability. Tours generally take about one hour.
Reservations are required for all tours . Tours are offered upon request from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday. The first and second floors are open to the public; please feel free to visit our Environmental Information Service Center on the first floor and the Library on the second floor. You must be accompanied by a Region 8 employee to visit floors 3–9. The building is not open after hours, on weekends or on federal holidays.
Tours for individuals and small groups (15 or fewer)
Tour reservations for individuals or small groups of up to 15 people can be scheduled through our tour coordinator two weeks in advance.
Large Group Tours
We welcome large group tours for students, youth groups, seniors, military, veterans and other organizations (16-30 people). Large group tours must have a three- to four-week advance notice.
Please fill out the tour request form to set up a group tour, or you may call Wendy Dew at 303-312-6605. We will do our best to accommodate you, but due to a high volume of tour requests, there may be some delay in scheduling your group. We will let you know as quickly as possible when your tour group is scheduled.
Instructions for visiting 1595 Wynkoop
Our building is designed to provide a high level of security for the people working inside. Here are some things you can do to help make our security check-in process go smoothly:
- Provide us with names for people in your tour group no later than three days before the date of your scheduled tour.
- Bring a government-issued picture ID (i.e., a driver's license) with you on the day of your tour. You will be asked to show this ID as you enter the lobby.
- Arrive 15 minutes before the start of your tour. Our security screening process is similar to screening at the airport: you will be asked to walk through a magnetometer (removing metal objects from your pockets) and your coats, bags etc. will be x-rayed. We regret that we do not have facilities to check coats or bags.
- You will be provided with a visitor badge after you pass through security. Please wear this at all times while you are in the building.
