Dear Friends and Supporters, People are at the heart of historic preservation and each of us connect to the places of our past in unique ways. For some, historic places speak to heritage, ancestors, architecture and beauty. For others, historic places embody sustainability, community, economic development and vibrant neighborhoods. For Colorado Preservation, Inc. (CPI), historic preservation is the result of the collective impact of dedicated individuals who recognize the impact of saving significant places as a catalyst for our future statewide.

For CPI 2015 marked a year of commitment to preservation as we are on the eve of a large and important celebration – the 50th anniversary of the National Preservation Act. Building upon our 31 years of advocacy, education and outreach work statewide, CPI will join hundreds of partner organizations and agencies over the next few years in advancing five key goals: building our coalition of supporters, learning from the first 50 years of preservation efforts, telling the story of preservation’s value, educating policymakers on its benefits, and preparing future leaders to advance these efforts.

CPI’s many successes this year are attributable to our essential members, supporters and partners, generous volunteers and bold board leaders. While our work in advocacy, education, outreach and technical services is as challenging and diverse as the character of our state, our consistent efforts to engage thousands of Coloradans in every county is making a lasting difference. Our programs remain strong and effective yet flexible as our organization’s capacity - and indeed the preservation movement as a whole - is ever evolving. Exciting preservation work is happening statewide and we are proud to help and applaud the people and projects who are keeping Colorado’s heritage alive.

Some of the highlights for 2015 include: • Celebrating 25 years of CPI’s Dana Crawford and State Honor Awards; a milestone anniversary recognizing the significant champions and projects of Historic Preservation in Colorado.

• Planning efforts to update the Economic Benefits of Historic Preservation in Colorado study in tandem with History Colorado’s State Historical Fund, Clarion Associates, Colorado Historical Foundation, and our preservation partners statewide.

• Projects utilizing Colorado’s new Historic Preservation Tax Credit begin.

• CPI 2015 Saving Places Conference celebrating the trades of preservation in practice.

Our work remains as essential today and for the future as it has over the past 31 years. On behalf of all of us at CPI and the historic places we work to protect, we greatly appreciate your support and genuine commitment to our mission to Build a Future with Historic Places.

Sincerely,

Dominick Sekich 2015 Board Chair

The 18th Annual Saving Places® Conference focused on the theme, “Advancing Preservation Practices.” This conference has become the premier gathering for preservationists from across the Rocky Mountain West and beyond. The 2015 event welcomed keynote speakers Vincent Michael, Executive Director of the Global Heritage Fund, and bestselling author Matthew Crawford. The conference celebrated preservation through the crafts, trades, and professions of the preservation field.

Tours included “Discover the Dome” at the State Capitol and an insider’s view of Denver’s newly renovated Union Station.

Additional events included an advocacy and outreach training session at the Colorado State Capitol; a roundtable focused on the Endangered Places Program; educational sessions on writing and managing State Historical Fund grants; as well as a Commission Assistance and Mentoring Program (C.A.M.P) training workshop sponsored by the National Alliance of Preservation Commissioners and History Colorado.

The Conference’s Preservation Marketplace has become the largest exhibit of preservation related products, services, and trades in the Rocky Mountain region. Exhibitors included businesses, vendors, tradespeople, nonprofit organizations, and governmental agencies.

This event was funded in part by a History Colorado State Historical Fund grant, for which CPI is very grateful.

Colorado Preservation, Inc. Annual Report 2015

The Dana Crawford & State Honor Awards Celebration honors individuals and organizations that have made a significant contribution toward preserving Colorado’s built environment. The award’s namesake, Dana Crawford, is a nationally recognized preservation pioneer.

The 2015 celebration honored Georgi Contiguglia, past president of History Colorado and longtime preservation champion. Prior to being appointed President and State Historic Preservation Officer, Georgi served as the Curator of Decorative and Fine Arts of History Colorado, during which time she oversaw the preservation, operation, and interpretation of History Colorado’s seven house museums.

The State Honor Awards recognize the efforts of those whose work demonstrates excellence in historic preservation. Five state award honorees were acknowledged in 2015 for their strong contributions:  Bruce Hanson – Retired head of the Western History/Genealogy Department at the Denver Public Library  Kevin Strong & Doug Whitehead – CBS4 for their ongoing dedication and contribution to Colorado’s Most Endangered Places Program  Town of Breckenridge – stewardship and rehabilitation/restoration efforts of multiple concurrent projects including their Community Center and Arts District  Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining Company (CC&V) – preservation of the history of mining architecture, artifacts and culture In 2015 CPI introduced the first annual Endangered Places Program Progress Award to recognize the efforts of a listed Endangered Site that demonstrates commendable vision, dedication, and determination over the years. The historic town of Saguache, Colorado (listed in 2009) received this year’s inaugural award.

Colorado’s Most Endangered Places Program (EPP) began in 1997 to highlight significant historic resources in danger of being lost. Each year, nominations are solicited from the public.

The program brings awareness and assistance to threatened sites, buildings, structures and cultural landscapes statewide.

This project is paid for in part by a History Colorado State Historical Fund grant.

Four sites were listed in 2015:

Denver Tramway Company Streetcar No .04

• Denver Company Streetcar No. 04, Jefferson County • Reiling Gold Dredge, Summit County • Ute Ulay Mill & Town Site, Hinsdale County • Gold Medal Orchard, Montezuma County

Streetcar No. 04 is one of the only remaining streetcars from the Denver Tramway Company, a rare narrow gauge car which at one time carried passengers from downtown Denver to Lakeside Amusement Park, Berkeley Park, Arvada, Golden, and beyond. By 1950, only 64 cars were still in use. Long-term plans for Streetcar No. 04 include restoring it to its 1950’s appearance and placing it on display at one of Arvada’s new light rail stations.

Reiling GOLD DREDGE

4

Colorado Preservation, Inc. Annual Report 2015

The Reiling Gold Dredge was constructed over 100 years ago for the French Gulch Dredging Company to mine gold in Summit County. The Reiling Gold Dredge had the capacity of moving 2,000 yards a day and remained in operation from 1915 until 1922. Since its accidental partial sinking in 1922, the Reiling Gold Dredge has remained unmoved and is in a state of ongoing decay.

Internal structures, walls and the roof have collapsed over time, compromising its structural integrity. To prevent further deterioration and the complete loss of this unique historic resource, more permanent measures need to be taken to stabilize the existing structure. Retaining the dredge and its historic context in situ will increase awareness of the dredge and its unique surroundings.

SAVED Three sites have been classified as “Saves” in 2015. The decision to categorize a location as a saved is site specific and considers the initial threat, and current condition.

GOLD MEDAL ORCHARD Planted before 1900 by James T. Giles, the Gold Medal Orchard was at one time among the most famous orchards in Colorado. The orchard was recognized at the 1904 World’s Fair in St. Louis, receiving a gold medal for its fruit varieties. Today, the once expansive orchard is down to 6.7 acres with only a few surviving historic trees. Future plans for the site entail preserving the heritage fruit tree varieties and working with the Montezuma Orchard Restoration Project to serve as a repository for the history of agriculture in Montezuma County and the Western Slope.

UTE ULAY MILL & TOWN SITE In its heyday, the Ute Ulay Mine was one of the best known silver and lead producers in Colorado. Between 1874 and 1903, the mines produced $12 million worth of minerals and contributed to the economic development of Lake City. The Ute Ulay Mine Mill complex and surrounding Henson town site consist of 18 structures that present a rare example of largely intact mining community. Over the past twenty years, the structures have continued to deteriorate and many are unstable. The 10 acre site has been donated to Hinsdale County, and environmental stabilization work is complete.

Weekend Workshop Weekend Workshops provide CPI and the Endangered Places Program the opportunity to introduce individuals to our listed endangered sites. Each year numerous volunteers participate in hands-on restoration projects under the guidance of trained professionals.

In 2015, the Granada Japanese American Relocation Center, commonly referred to as Amache was selected for the location of the annual EPP Weekend Workshop. Located near the Town of Granada in southeastern Colorado, Amache is a nationally significant example of a WWII Japanese-American relocation center. Amache opened in August 1942 and remained open throughout WWII, after which the War Assets Administration disposed of the last of its buildings, mainly by moving them to offsite locations. At its peak, the camp housed 7,000 persons.

On June 6, 2015, volunteers came to Amache to lay a brick flooring on an original barrack foundation, using historic photographs to match design.

Colorado Preservation, Inc. Annual Report 2015

Preservation Services Projects Colorado Preservation, Inc. offers a variety of critical historic preservation services to nonprofit organizations, municipalities, counties, and private property owners throughout the state. Services offered include project planning and development, grant writing and management and assistance with nominations to the National and/or State Register of Historic Places. CPI has been successful in attaining grants from a variety of funding sources, including the History Colorado State Historical Fund, the National Park Service, the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and the Colorado Department of Transportation.

Highlighted 2015 Projects: • Home on the Range (education, interpretation and heritage tourism project) – Las Animas & Otero Counties • Amache Barracks (reconstruction) – Prowers County • Fort Lyon (preservation & reuse planning) – Bent County • Como Depot (restoration) – Park County

Home on the Range In 2015, CPI celebrated the close of a multi-year project, Home on the Range.

This project was a collaboration orchestrated by numerous CPI staff and funded in part by the State Historical Fund and the Colorado Department of Transportation. The project focused on the Southeast region of Colorado, including Las Animas and Otero counties. Components of the project included five National Register nominations, numerous oral interviews, podcasts, two brochure publications and the design and installation of three kiosk displays featuring the Purgatoire River Region. One brochure told the story of “Homesteading” and the other entailed a driving tour of the region with a CPI website link to podcasts of oral interviews. Three two-panel kiosks were installed in the towns of Model, Higbee and Kim.

Installed Kiosks

Amache Barracks

Amache Site – Barracks, Water & Guard Tower

Completed Barracks - Exterior

The Amache Barracks building was reconstructed in the summer of 2015 as part of an interpretive project at the Granada JapaneseAmerican Relocation Center, commonly referred to as Amache.

Amache operated from 1942 though the end of WWII as a relocation center. At war’s end the site was cleared of all buildings and the land is now owned by the town of Granada. Coordinated by CPI and funded primarily by the National Park Service’s JapaneseAmerican Confinement Sites Program, the project involved constructing a barracks building based on original blueprints. The barracks was built near the reconstructed Guard and Water Towers.

All three reconstruction projects as well as a nearly complete interpretive driving tours were a result of a collaborative effort between CPI, NPS, Amache Preservation Society, Friends of Amache, and former internees.

Preservation Projects Fort Lyon Located east of Las Animas on 512 acres, Fort Lyon in Bent County has a long and rich history with the state of Colorado. This National Register District was originally built as an army outpost in the 1860′s. The property consists of approximately 91 contributing buildings and features in various architectural styles reflecting different periods of development. In recent years, Bent County has taken a leadership role in redeveloping the site, which is owned by the State of Colorado. Today, Fort Lyon is partially occupied by the Colorado Coalition for the Homeless. Current project goals include reusing the property and developing a preservation plan so that the campus can be self-supporting. Partially funded by the History Colorado State Historical Fund, the current project will result in a comprehensive master plan identifying building conditions, reuse potential, and funding opportunities.

Como Depot

Fort Lyon - Endangered Site 2013

Como Depot – Before

Constructed in the late-19th century, the Como Depot in Park County today is a shining example of a preservation victory. This once vacant and weathered property was first listed as one of Colorado’s Most Endangered Places in 2006; it became a Preservation Services Project and in 2015 considered saved. Under the guidance and expertise of CPI (in partnership with Park County) private property owner David Tomkins secured funding to fully restore the depot, including the passenger platform and a section of original track. The property is stewarded by the nonprofit group Denver, South Park, and Pacific Historical Society, which holds a long-term lease on the building.
