Heart of Golden is Back

Virtual Meeting: March 1 at 5:30 p.m. In-Person Meeting: Will occur in March Check online for details.

The Heart of Golden project kicked off when the City of Golden purchased 7.27 acres of land east of Ford Street along the Clear Creek Corridor in 2019. This land gives the Golden community the opportunity to address several longstanding community goals: Enhancing civic and cultural community activities, realizing the potential of the creek corridor, and consolidating and improving municipal facilities and service delivery. There has been significant community engagement on this project, and we are excited for more! Help decide on a final plan for the Creek Corridor.

Sign up for more information, read about the process so far, and participate in the future of the Heart of Golden on www.guidinggolden.com/heartof-golden-refining.

Golden History Museum & Park Signs O’ the Times –

Coming to Your Favorite Museum in March

Old signs are powerful evidence of the changes Golden has experienced. Simply put, signs are visual graphics we use to communicate information to each other. We’ve used them for thousands of years, and if you stop and look around, they’re everywhere. The permanent City of Golden collection currently cares for more than two dozen commercial and business signs. Plan to stop by and see five we’ve recently acquired, including: • The Golden Outlook newspaper, about 1970 • Big “M” Restaurant and Lounge, about 1965 • Big Tree Mobile Home Park, about 2009 • Golden Lodge No. 13, I. O. O. F., 1952 (this neon sign was restored to working order especially for this show and will be illuminated.) • Carleen’s of Golden, about 1980 Together, they make a nice snapshot of Golden’s rich business history from the 1950s to 2010.

While at the museum, be sure to also check out the iconic “Heritage Square,” “Coors on Tap” and the Golden Chamber of Commerce signs.
