About this Event
Chris Geddes, Aurora's Historic Preservation Specialist, is leading a walking tour of historic architecture on Galena St. The tour leaves from Centennial House at 11 a.m. Come before the tour to see Centennial House and grab some hot cider and cocoa.
Centennial House is a Queen Anne Victorian style home. It is the oldest of the nine remaining houses Donald Fletcher built for his speculative community east of Denver. Like all Fletcher homes, it has indoor plumbing and an upstairs bathroom, a luxury considering both the time period and the arid surroundings. The City of Aurora purchased the house in 1990 and community members restored it for the City’s Centennial year. Centennial House will be open for drop in tours from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
