It was donated, along with a $4 million endowment, to the City and County of Denver by cable television mogul Bill Daniels in 1998. He died in 2000.[2]
The mansion originally had many unusual features such as a fire pole down the center of a spiral staircase leading to the master bedroom, elephant sculptures, and a pink piano. In 2012, the mansion received a major remodel to modernize the decor.[3]
The mansion was built on land subdivided from the original grounds of the Shangri-La mansion built by Harry E. Huffman in 1937.[4]
