Building 48 at the Denver Federal Center to be transformed

LAKEWOOD, Colo. — Building 48 at the Denver Federal Center is showing the wear and tear of 82 years. 

Originally an ordnance plant, it’s where employees produced 6,000 cartridges of small caliber bullets a day for World War II soldiers.

Now the building itself may be ammunition to fight climate change. It will be transformed into a clean energy workspace for Department of the Interior employees that are currently working out of rented office spaces located across the Denver area.
