First Hotel in Colorado Springs, Colorado (1871)

This is the very first hotel built in Colorado Springs. Constructed in 1871, it was appropriately named the Colorado Springs Hotel. Though it has gone through physical changes and a move from its original location on Cascade Avenue...it lives on as a business building on South Nevada Avenue.
