Trinidad, Colorado - A Historic Building Survey
Saddle Rock Building
Map location #30.
The Saddlerock Building is another instance of business quarters still being used as they were used originally. The place housed a hotel, bar and restaurant back in 1904 after it was built and does so today. Original lot owner and owner at the time of construction were P. J. Peters and Charlie Niccoli, respectively.
The Saddlerock contains many examples of elements borrowed from various architectural styles and combined in a rather pleasing fashion.
The first photograph shows some of the west side of North Commercial to Main Street. One sees that the picture was taken in the days when wooden Indians often scanned the horizon from in front of the local cigar stores. The second photograph is dated July, 1970.
Legal Description: Lots 9 and 10; Block 115 OTS.
