Old Colorado City, founded in 1859, is located on the west side of Colorado Springs and has a rich and
colorful history. It was the first capital of the Territory of Colorado and the center of early settlement in the Pikes Peak region. Designated a National Historic District in 1982, restoration efforts have resulted in a physical and cultural recovery of the area. Fine old brick structures, quaint alleyways, and territorial charm provide the setting
for small thriving shops, galleries, and restaurants. A large portion of the homes in the area are restored turn of the century gems hidden behind tree lined steets off of the hustle and bustle of Colorado Boulevard. Some are now open to visitors as bed and breakfasts.
