OUR WORK
Founded in 2004, The Alliance Center is the hub of Colorado’s sustainability community. Our mission-driven coworking space supports more than 160 organizations each year through tenancy and events in our historic downtown Denver building. Tenants range from local to national groups and all work tirelessly to advance social and environmental solutions. The Center’s support helps expand their impact and reach.
The Center works at the cutting edge of energy efficiency and people-focused design. An all-electric historic building with seven LEED certifications, The Center is the first building in Colorado to earn Platinum certification in any of LEED’s v4 categories. It’s also the fifth building in the world to measure performance using the United States Green Building Council’s Arc platform and the first building in Colorado to achieve a WELL Health-Safety rating.
