First Presbyterian Church (Pueblo)

The First Presbyterian Church is an interesting local expression of the Gothic Revival style.  Constructed in 1889, noted architect Fred A. Hale designed the unusual building combining two popular Late Victorian styles-Gothic Revival and Richardsonian Romanesque.  The steeply pitched roof, prominent spire, and pointed-arched openings create a vertical emphasis and are all defining characteristics of Gothic architecture.

Pueblo architect George W. Roe designed this predominately Romanesque Revival style building in 1902.  Much of the original interior remains in place.

First Methodist Episcopal Church (Pueblo)

The First United Methodist Church of Pueblo (formerly First Methodist Episcopal) Church is eligible in the area of Architecture from 1924 to 1959 at the local level.  In a combination of the Gothic Revival and Tudor Revival styles, architectural highlights include a tower, stained glass, stone tracery, pointed-arch windows, stucco, and false half-timbering.

Elson Bridge (New Location)

Originally crossing the Purgatoire River in Las Animas County, in 1993, the 150-foot span faced demolition due to its deteriorating condition and low load capacity.

El Pueblo

El Pueblo, occupied from 1842 to 1854, is important for its association with the exploration and settlement of what became Colorado and the larger Rocky Mountain West; for its association with commerce and trade, both in the local area and as part of a regional trail system; and for its association with the social history of the upper Arkansas River, a multi-ethnic, multi-cultural, and multi-national population.

Edison School

A multi-purpose central building and two single classroom "unit school houses" were constructed in 1909.  Two more "units" and a four classroom building were added in 1923.

Nathaniel W. Duke House

This two-and-a-half-story brick Queen Anne residence was designed in 1889 by Denver architect Fred A. Hale.  Its most notable feature, a large oversized three-story tower at the southeast corner of the home, affords one of the finest views of the city and mountains to the west.

Doyle Settlement / White House / Casa Blanca

Dating from circa 1859, Joseph Doyle’s settlement now lies in ruins.  It was a self contained unit including a main residence, dining facility, store, housing for laborers, flour mill, blacksmith shop and granaries.
