Alma Stone Community Building
One of the most treasured historic buildings in
Alma was restored in the fall of 2004, thanks to efforts by the Alma
Foundation, Town of Alma, and generous grants from the Colorado
Historical Foundation and Park County Historic Preservation Advisory
Commission.
The little stone building on Main St. was built
in 1936 by Alma volunteers. Some of the stone is believed to
be from a historic structure owned by the Tabors in the Buckskin Joe
town site. It is on the state register of historic properties.
Although often referred to as the “stone church,” the building has
been used for a variety of functions including parties, meetings,
weddings, funerals and more.
Scheuber + Darden and Image Builders were hired
to perform the restoration work. The building is owned by the
Town of Alma and serves a variety of functions as a public facility.
A restroom has been added and a small kitchen is planned, as well as
eventual plans for a finished basement.
The historic building is available to rent for
private parties, weddings and other gatherings. We’d greatly
appreciate any old photos or stories you have about events that took
place here. For rental information, contact the Town of Alma
719-836-2712 or email: info@townofalma.com |
