The former mayoral candidate is considering a run for Auon’tai Anderson's seat on the DPS Board of Education.
Tattered Cover is about more than space, too. Before Spearman and his partners bought the company, the last owners had decided to close the store at 1628 16th Street in favor of a smaller spot in the new McGregor Square. Meskis had opened the mall location back in 1994; a dozen years later, she closed the Cherry Creek flagship and moved it to the Lowenstein complex on East Colfax Avenue. “The Colfax location is, all in, about 24,000 or 25,000 square feet,” Spearman says.
There are “tons of pros” to remaining in the Lowenstein, he adds quickly. “We just don’t know the answer yet. We’re still asking questions, and we’re in active conversations with the building’s owner to make something work.” Meanwhile, Tattered Cover will go on with business as usual even as Spearman drops back to just being a majority shareholder in the company. Customers won’t see a whit of difference in the experience they’ve come to expect, he says, even as his own daily routine changes.
“I’m just realizing that I’ve been using the word ‘we’ to describe the Tattered Cover throughout this entire interview — I’m using that in the broader sense,” Spearman says with a laugh. But it also goes to show that while Kwame Spearman might be relinquishing the title of CEO…he’s not going anywhere., it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we'd like to keep it that way.
