Colorado Historical Society Relocation

A new location begins a new era for the Colorado Historical Society

History Colorado is on the Move
History Colorado, the Colorado Historical Society, has secured temporary office space for staff at 1560 Broadway in the former Denver Post building while the new History Colorado Center is under construction at 12th Avenue and Broadway.

The History Colorado staff including the State Historical Fund staff, those associated with the museum, the Stephen H. Hart Library, and the Office of Archaeology and Historic Preservation, have moved to 1560 Broadway, Denver. History Colorado staff will stay in the temporary location until the History Colorado Center at 1200 Broadway is ready for an expected 2011 move-in. The public opening date of the History Colorado Center has not yet been set.

Moving Memories: A New Future for Colorado’s Past
Tune into KUSA Channel 9 on Saturday, May 22, at 6:30 p.m. for a special program examining the mind-boggling move of the Colorado History Museum’s collections. Millions of pieces of Colorado history have been carefully packed and moved to warehouses while a new building, called the History Colorado Center, is under construction.

Researchers Rejoice!
The Western History Department of the Denver Public Library (10 W. 14th Ave. Pkwy.) is now making History Colorado’s newspaper microfilm available to the public. Reels can be requested at the 5th floor reference desk. The collection will be available at the Denver Public Library until the History Colorado Center, now under construction, opens.
