Baker House

The two-story red brick residence was built in 1896 by Frederick R. Baker, an early community leader.  The Queen Anne style is evident in its complex roof, prominent wraparound porch, and two-story rounded bay. 

Thumbnail

Avery House

Built in 1870, with stone walls one foot thick, the building is one of the city’s oldest surviving residences.  It has experienced few alterations and is considered to be one of the best examples of Victorian architecture in Fort Collins.

Thumbnail

Armstrong Hotel

Constructed in 1923, the Armstrong Hotel is associated with the growth of the automobile and tourism industries that resulted in the road building movement of the 1920s.  Located along US Hwy. 287, the forty-one room hotel provided a comfortable respite for the traveler willing and able to pay for more than the free local auto tourist camp.

Peter Anderson House

This circa 1900 two-story wood frame residence, with basement walls of sandstone, exhibits elements of the Italianate style as interpreted by noted Fort Collins architect Montezuma Fuller.  His design features a belcast hip roof with a heavy bracketed cornice and a two-story bay on the north wall.

Thumbnail

Ammons Hall

Opened in 1922, this Italian Renaissance Revival style building was designed by prominent Colorado architect Eugene G. Groves to meet the needs of female students.

Thumbnail

Ypsilon Lake Trail

Completed in 1907, the 4.5-mile Ypsilon Lake Trail predates the establishment of Rocky Mountain National Park in 1915.  The Estes Park Protective and Improvement Association likely established the current alignment to reach Ypsilon Lake.  

Thumbnail

Wind Ridge

Built between 1915-1930 as a summer residence for Clark and Elizabeth Blickensderfer, the complex remains a good local example of Craftsman / Rustic style architecture.  

Thumbnail

Willow Park Stable

Essentially unaltered since it was built in 1926, this stable is a good example of the Rustic style.  The property is associated with the Rocky Mountain National Park and the Historic Park Landscapes in National and State Parks Multiple Property Submissions.

Thumbnail

Willow Park Patrol Cabin

The log Rustic style building was constructed in 1923 to serve crews maintaining the Fall River Road.  It has seen little use since the opening of Trail Ridge Road in 1932. 

Thumbnail

William Allen White Cabins

Located 300 yards south of the Moraine Park Visitor Center, the compound consists of five structures, purchased or built by W.A. White after 1912.  The property is associated with the Rocky Mountain National Park and the Historic Park Landscapes in National and State Parks Resources Multiple Property Submissions.
