105 Years Ago
The October 21, 1920 Colorado Transcript had an article about proposals to pave a route from “the cement road” (Colfax) into downtown Golden. There were two routes under consideration–extending Washington Avenue south, at a cost of $53,506.97 or extending Ford Street at a cost of $39,122.84.
At that time, all of Golden’s streets–including Washington and Ford–were still unpaved.
