61 Years Ago
The September 5, 1963 Colorado Transcript covered a groundbreaking ceremony at the Presbyterian Church (map). The congregation had long been over-crowded in the old brick church at 15th and Washington Avenue (now Foothills Art Center). They had built a new church on 16th Avenue in the late 1950s.
By 1963, they were ready to add a much-needed Sunday School wing. The addition more than doubled the floor space of the building.
Many thanks to the Golden Rotary Club for sponsoring Golden History Moments for the month of September.
