Tower of Memories, Streamline Moderne mausoleum in Wheat Ridge, United States.

Tower of Memories is a seven-story, 158-foot (48.16 m) mausoleum at Crown Hill Cemetery in unincorporated Jefferson County, Colorado, with its entrance at 29th Avenue and Wadsworth Boulevard. Designed with Gothic detailing by Charles A. Smith in 1926, the building's construction was continued by architects William and Arthur Fisher after Smith's firm failed in 1928, and completed by John Monroe in 1948.

Charles A. Smith designed the mausoleum with Gothic detailing in 1926. After his firm failed in 1928, architects William and Arthur Fisher were commissioned to continue construction. World War II caused further delays, and in 1948 architect John Monroe was hired to complete the seven-story building.

The mausoleum is a working burial place within Crown Hill Cemetery, not a monument to a single family. Its seven floors hold interment spaces for many families, and the building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Visitors can look for the Gothic detailing designed by Charles A. Smith in 1926, which sets it apart from the cemetery's lawn markers.

The entrance is at the corner of 29th Avenue and Wadsworth Boulevard in unincorporated Jefferson County, outside Wheat Ridge. The seven-story tower stands inside Crown Hill Cemetery, so access follows the cemetery grounds rather than a separate visitor entrance.

The building's seven stories make it 158 feet (48.16 m) tall, and its entrance faces the corner of 29th Avenue and Wadsworth Boulevard. Three architects worked on it in turn: Charles A. Smith designed it with Gothic detailing in 1926, William and Arthur Fisher took over after his firm failed in 1928, and John Monroe was hired to finish it in 1948.
