Boone Santa Fe Railroad Depot
The Boone Santa Fe Railroad Depot, at 100 Baker Ave. in Boone, Colorado, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.[1] It has also been known as Boone Town Hall as the city offices were moved there in 1996 upon damage to its main town hall building.[2] It is a railway station and shipping point for the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway's main line running through southern Colorado.[2] It was deemed significant as representing "the impact that railroads had on a town's growth and development" and for its architectural significance: "This well-preserved building is one of the few surviving wood frame combination depots still at its original location. The Boone Depot was one of two otherwise standard structures [of the Santa Fe Railway in Southern Colorado] known to have an enlarged operator's bay."[2] See alsoReferences
