"A classic Denver steakhouse is officially closed at 821 17th Street. The Broker Restaurant served its final New Year’s Eve dinner Sunday after 45 years inside the old Denver National Bank building. Westword eulogizes the fine dining establishment, which was known for complimentary peel-and-eat shrimp and steakhouse offerings such as beefs Wellington and Oscar. Over its years, the restaurant has expanded and contracted from multiple neighborhood outposts to the final downtown destination. The Broker hosted generations of first dates, weddings, anniversaries, and other milestone celebrations, according to fans and patrons." - Josie Sexton
