Description Condition excellent _x_good _JX,fair x deteriorated ruins Check one x unaltered _JL_ altered Check one _X_ original site moved date unexposed Describe the present and original (if known) physical appearance The Union Avenue Historic District consists of a large group of commercial structures located south of the central business district in Pueblo, Colorado. The buildings lie primarily along Union Avenue and along the four intersecting streets of East and West "B," "C," and "D" and South Grand. The district has a total of 87 properties. Of this number, 70 contribute to the historic and architectural integrity of the district; 9 are more modern, noncontributing structures; and 8 are vacant lots. When taken together, the structures form a record of commercial architecture in Pueblo and evidence of the changes which have taken place^in the course of time. The district maintains the feeling and association of a late nineteenth/early twentieth century commercial area. The boundaries of the district are well defined. The area is approximately four blocks long and two blocks wide, but the actual boundary line is more irregular so as to include all the historic and architecturally significant buildings associated with Union Avenue. (These boundaries may best be seen on the maps that accompany the nomination). Outside but adjar cent to the district are newer structures, vacant lots, and a few isolated historic buildings and a few other historic buildings that have been irreversibly altered. The buildings within the district exhibit several architectural styles that reflect the evolution and growth of Pueblo. The predominant style is "high Victorian" commercial. These strctures generally have narrow facades with tall, narrow windows with elaborate lintels, highly decorated cornices, and flat roofs. The J.S. Glass Building at 308 S. Union is on the National Register of Historic Places and is an excellent example of this architectural style. Some of these buildings are among the best surviving examples in Colorado. A significant individual building is the Union Depot. Union Depot is a fine example of the Richardsonian Romanesque style of Victorian architecture. Another building, the Riverside Block, also displays Romanesque features. There are also several buildings that reflect the Renaissance Revival style of architecture of the early twentieth century. A most notable example within the district is the Vail Hotel. Both the Union Depot and the'Vail Hotel are listed on the National Register There are also a number of Victorian commercial structures originally within the district which were either damaged or destroyed as a result of tne _ 1921 flood. These repaired and replaced structures reflect the commercial style of the 1920s. Virtually all the buildings in the district are brick in construction, one to three stories in height. Some of these structures have been stuccoed and others have been altered at the street level. Most structures retain their original detailing on the upper stories, particularly at the cornice line. Following is a listing of all properties within the district: "C" denotes contributing "NC" denotes non-contributing; and "V" denotes vacant lot.

The district also has importance for its long standing contribution to the commercial development of the community. The Union Avenue District is an early commercial district which spans the old Arkansas River channel and has its origins in the towns of South Pueblo and Central Pueblo. The Town of South Pueblo was developed on the south side of the Arkansas River as a colony of the Denver and Rio Grande Railway. The railroad purchased a portion of the Nolan Land Grant; formed the Central Colorado Improvement Company; and in 1872 recorded a plat for South Pueblo. The town of South Pueblo was incorporated October 27, 1873. The ffown of Central Pueblo was incorporated June 21, 1882. The town consisted of a small triangular piece of property, north of the Arkansas River, which had been subdivided by Mr. Kretchmers following the 1874 straightening of the Arkansas River channel. The three towns of South Pueblo, Central Pueblo, and Pueblo wen incorporated in April of 1886. Article VI of the Articles of Consolidation specified the location for the Pueblo City Kail. "The City Hall of said consolidated City shall be erected there at some point not further north than second street in the present city of Pueblo, and not further south than the Arkansas River." The City Hall constructed following consolidation and the existing City Hall are within the specified area. Li.--la is '.mtten^of ^the eairly aistory of Union Avenue. -The Central Colorado Improvement Association originally laid out the South Pueblo colony in three divisions. The bottom, or lower division which borders the Arkansas River on the north and contains a portion of the Union Avenue District, was originally intended for the heavier branches of wholesale business and manufacturing interests. The railroad companies were to have their depots and shops in this area. The location of the railroad depots and the associated warehousing activities in this area have had a significant influence in the development of the area. 9.

The street is first identified as Union on an 1880 panoramic view of the city. That portion of the avenue north of the River is identified as Union, while that portion south of the river is still identified as 5th. By 1882, all maps of the area identify the venue as Union. This first mention of Union Avenue, then 5th Street, appears in a Colorado Chieftain article which has been reprinted in the If74 prospectus, The Pueblo Colony of Southern Colorado. "The river is crossed by two passenger bridges,and the lumber is already on the ground for a third across fifth street (Union Avenue). A new street passenger railway is planned to run from Abriendo Avenue on the Mesa, down El Paso Avenue (Union Avenue) to fifth street (Union Avenue) and through it across the new bridge." The exact date of the construction of this, the first Union Avenue bridge or. the construction of the horse-drawn trolley line is not known. The first map to show the trolley line down Union Avenue appears in 1882. This line connects Bessemer and the steel works on the south side of the river with the city of Pueblo on the north, via Union Avenue and the Union Avenue bridge. There are many factors which helped establish Union Avenue as a commercial district, but the running of this first trolley line, which connected the north and south sides of the river via Union Avenue, was one of the more important. The Union_AYenue area quickly developed following the platting of South Pueblo ^ia-'T^TTTxThe 1875 Colorado State Business Directory lists 57 businesses itT-5eu~th Pueblo"!Most of these are along Union Avenue. The first brick structures along the Avenue appear in the early 1880s,- and by the time the 1904-05 Sanborn Map was published, most of the structures which appear on the avenue today were already developed. Prominent structures within he district constructed after this date include City/Memorial Hall and the Vail ,Hotel. The street remained relatively stable until June of 1921 when the Arkansas River inundated the entire Union Avenue area and much of the downtown. The flood was physically and financially devastating to both the town and Union Avenue area. Many of the buildings next to the river channel were totally destroyed, while others were damaged or structurally weakened. Those structures that were severely damaged were subsequently demolished, while many of the damaged structures were repaired or remodeled in the style of the period. The result was that many structures which were originally constructed in the 1880s appear to be constructed in the 1920's. On those lots where the structures had been completely destroyed or subsequently demolished, new one-story structures which reflect the commercial architectural style of the 1920s, were built. The high water mark from this flood can still be seen on some of the buildings in the area. FHR-8-300 (11-78) United States Department of the Interior Heritage Conservation and Recreation Service National Register of Historic Places Inventory—Nomination Form Continuation sheet Union Avenue Historic District Item number 8 Page 3 Following the flood and the economic collapse of many of Pueblo's basic industries in the early 1920s, ; Union Avenue began to decline. In the late 1930s, and 1940s r the avenue's economy was tied to the railroad passenger business, and Union Avenue became known for its many taverns and its "red light" district. Local folklore states that in 1939 the residents of Union Avenue on the Mesa petitioned the City Council and successfully changed the name of that portion of Union Avenue to Colorado Avenue. The residents of Union Avenue who lived on the Mesa did not want their place of residence confused with the notorious "Union Avenue" below the Mesa. The decline in rail passenger business and a "shut down" of much of the illegal activity along the Avenue in the 1950s.; further impacted the area. Now in the late 1970s., and early 1980s,; Union Avenue is beginning to "turn around." New investment has prompted some revitalization, and further rehabilitation and redevelopment seems to be in the offing. An area business association, the Historic Pueblo Business Center Association, has formed and has begun to talk about common problems and ways to redevelop the avenue. The area is also significant because of the many local leaders associated with it. Much of the early leadership of the city came from area property and business owners. Following is a listing of significant leaders, architects, and businesses associated with the area: • Alva Adams, Governor of the State of Colorado, 1887-1889, 1897-1899, and 1905. • W.A.L. Cooper (Cooper-Alien Building), President of Board of Trade. • A.E. Graham (Graham-Wescott Building), City Treasurer, 1886. • D.L. Holden (Holden Blocks 2 and 3), Mayor of the City of Pueblo, 1886, and President of the Board of Trade. • Andrew McClelland (Riverside Block), President of the Board of Trade and noted local philanthropist. • Vrn. Strait (W. Strait Building), Mayor, City of Pueblo, 1893-1894. • James B. Orman (Orman and Crook Armory Block and Orman Block), Mayor, City of Pueblo, 1897-1899. • A. Royale (Holden Block), Vice President of Central National Bank, and Mayor, City of Pueblo, 1888. • John Vail (Star-Journal Publishing Building), Founder of Star Journal Publishing Comoanv and builder of t-hp Vail FHR-8-300 (11-78) United States Department of the Interior Heritage Conservation and Recreation Service National Register of Historic Places Inventory—Nomination Form Union Avenue Historic Continuation sheet District_____________Item number 8____________Page 4 Two prominent early Pueblo architects have designed buildings in the Union Avenue District. G.W. Roe was the architect for the Un. Strait Block, and P.P. Mills was the architect of the Boyle building. The'most prominent "nationally known" business to be located on the Union Avenue was the Frazier Saddle Company. Robert Frazier, in partner ship with Samuel Gallup, established Pueblo as the saddle capital of America. The Frazier catalog was known as the'Cowboy's Bible."

Glass Clothing Store, also known as Bella Union, was significant as a noteworthy example of a 19th century Victorian commercial structure. Built in 1888, it was the first three story building and the first commercial office complex on Union Avenue. Union Avenue is significant for its long standing contribution to the commercial and business development of Pueblo and southern Colorado. In December 1982, Union Avenue Historic Business District was listed in the Register and included Bella Union as a contributing building. Although vacant for many years, the building was being restored when fire destroyed it on February 6, 1983. The J. S. Glass Clothing Store ceases to meet the criteria for listing in the National Register because the qualities which caused it originally to be listed are destroyed. In accordance with 36 CFR Part 60.15, "Removing Properties from the National Register," the Colorado State Historic Preservation Office has begun the process of removing the J. S.
