Elegant Three-Story Stone Hotel
Circa 1892
|
The
Blanca Hotel was built by Travelers' Insurance Company in
1889, to accommodate prospective settlers to the Monte Vista
area.
It was resplendent with a fireplace in every room, very
large dining hall, and the elegance of the time. Sadly, it burned
to the ground in 1902. The hotel was located at First and
Broadway.

Milling & Elevator Co. |
