GOLDEN HISTORY MOMENT
157 Years Ago
The very first issue of the Colorado Transcript appeared on December 16, 1866. One of the articles mentioned that the Wells-Fargo stagecoach company was building a stone stable on 13th Street (which was called 3rd Street at the time), east of Washington Avenue.
In later years, the stone stable was converted into a garage, and towards the end of its life, it was used by the City for storage of large equipment.
In 1948, the owner of the Golden Gem theater purchased the old stone building and demolished it to make way for an expansion of the theater.
Thanks to the Golden History Museum for providing the online cache of historic Transcripts, and to the Golden Transcript for documenting our history since 1866!
