"The Thatcher's Historic North Side Neighborhood Walking Tour"
May 17, 2008
10 a.m.-12 p.m.
Mineral Palace Park
Court and 19th Streets
Pueblo, CO 81003
map
Admission: $10.00 per person
Come take a stroll through the streets of Pueblo's historic North Side. We begin at the site of the once Mineral Palace at the north end of Mineral Palace Park. Learn about the palace, why it was built and what happened to it. We'll walk along the streets that were scraped out of the prairie lying to the north of the down town business district. The hill at 15th and Greenwood gave Mahlon Thatcher's Hillcrest a grand view of the surrounding area. Many of the earliest houses were the residences of Pueblo's upper class who sought to remove themselves from more developed neighborhoods that lay closer to the down town area.
The tour begins at the north end of Mineral Palace Park; cost includes light refreshments provided at the end of the tour.
