Since I arrived in Denver, I've been focusing on finding housing and getting my bearings. Today, I took a break from that process and visited a historic site. The Four Mile house is Denver's oldest building. Built during Colorado's first gold rush in 1859, it served as an inn and tavern at the last stagecoach stop before downtown Denver. Now it sits at the center of a small park surrounded by development.
I took a tour of the house and grounds. Subsequent owners made additions and alterations so I saw a variety of architecture and decor in one small building; from rustic rough hewn logs to refine Victorian parlor.
