Bell, was the contractor who converted the stables and shop to the first AAA office building. Great to see these old photos of the site!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4918701238841683192.post-61154694800782776162008-01-21T16:04:00.000-07:002008-01-21T16:04:00.000-07:00It is certainly possible that there was another lo...It is certainly possible that there was another location for Palace Stables in the 1400 Block of Pennsylvania. However, the picture shown remains at Cheyenne Place, near Broadway, 15th and Colfax, and Palace Stables are clearly marked. The more famous photo taken by William Henry Jackson also shows the Palace Stables in this location. A rerouting of Colfax, AKA 15th Avenue, and not to be confused with 15th Street, did occur a bit to the west of this location however when Civic Center Park was under construction. That is the portion of Colfax and also of 14th Avenue that makes a curve around the park.Shawn Snowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17836899999017955654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4918701238841683192.post-5746911341005779562007-12-30T08:19:00.000-07:002007-12-30T08:19:00.000-07:00Excellent rundown.

AAA was built in the middle of where 15th used to run before it was rerouted for CC park.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4918701238841683192.post-15732835959935280322007-10-18T22:53:00.000-06:002007-10-18T22:53:00.000-06:00Thanks for a really great blog!!Thanks for a really great blog!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
