As you look across the Denver skyline, you see a lot of different building types. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Most of the taller ones are commercial office buildings. Then, there are few parking lot structures. Before long, you might start to notice that there\u2019s a theme with most of the apartment buildings you see dotting the urban landscape here in Colorado. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
That theme is flat roofs. They\u2019re everywhere in our state, and they\u2019re especially popular in the design and construction of apartment buildings. This might have you wondering, \u201cWhy are so many apartment buildings flat-roofed?\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
