Built: 1908
The Denver, Northwestern and Pacific Railway reached Steamboat Springs in 1909, thus opening up an important rail link between the community and Colorado’s Eastern Slope markets. Denver architect Frank Edbrooke designed the two story building which included a passenger section, with waiting rooms and station office below upper level living quarters, and a long freight and baggage extension to the west. The depot closed when passenger service ended in 1968. It was added to the National Historic Register in 1978. This rehabilitation and preservation project restored windows, cleaned the façade, and fixed damage to the chimney.
