Los Angeles Railway Streetcar No. 3101

The Los Angeles Railway (LARy) No.3101's Presidential Conference Committee (PCC) car design represents a major engineering development in rail-based surface street transportation.

Thumbnail

Lindley-Johnson-Vanderhoof House 

The 1892 Lindley-Johnson-Vanderhoof House is significant for its architecture as an excellent example of the Queen Anne style in Colorado Springs executed in stone and brick, as reflected in its steeply pitched gables, asymmetrical façade, use of multiple materials, circular tower and semi-decagonal bay, one-story porch extending into a terrace, and porte cochère. 

Thumbnail

Lennox House

Constructed in 1900 for a prominent businessman, the house became part of the Colorado College campus in 1936.  It is associated with the development of north Colorado Springs and subsequently played a significant role in the college’s history, serving as the Student Union from 1937 to 1959. 

Thumbnail

Knights of Columbus Hall (Colorado Springs)

The 1928 Knights of Columbus Hall was the site of numerous social and entertainment activities in Colorado Springs, including fraternal organization meetings and social gatherings, and public assemblies, particularly for young people and high school students.  In 1937 it became the first home of the Pioneer Museum, now known as the Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum.

Thumbnail

Jackson House

The 1900 Jackson House is associated with the development of the residential neighborhood directly east of Colorado College, an area of wealthy city residents who would became benefactors of the college.

Herschell Ideal Two-Abreast Carousel (Cheyenne Mountain Zoo Carousel)

This circa 1925, two-abreast, half-and-half, carousel was manufactured by the Allan Herschell Company and arrived at the zoo in 1937.

Thumbnail

Hagerman Mansion

James John Hagerman built this three-story Victorian mansion in 1885.  In 1927, it was converted into luxury apartments.  The original house was constructed of pink, rock-faced sandstone, and later sympathetic additions enhanced the architectural value of the whole.

Thumbnail

Gwynne-Love House

An imposing Victorian era dwelling, its design combines Queen Anne forms with the English detailing that was popular locally when it was built in 1886. 

Thumbnail

Grace & Saint Stephen’s Episcopal Church

Grace and St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church is architecturally significant as it embodies the distinctive characteristics of the Gothic Revival style in the 1894 and 1925 building portions, while the 1955 building area displays typical architectural characteristics of the Tudor Revival Style as interpreted by local architects and craftsmen. 

Thumbnail

Glen Eyrie

Located in narrow Queen’s Canyon just north of the geological formation known as the Garden of the Gods, Glen Eyrie is the estate of General William Jackson Palmer, the founder of the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad (D&RG) and the city of Colorado Springs.  What began as a relatively modest clapboard home in 1871 had evolved into the sixty-five room "castle” by 1906, with multiple improvements in between.
