Description

"When James H. Crawford first set foot in 1874 in the area no known as Steamboat Springs, Colorado, there were no permanent buildings within 20 miles. He wrote his claim on an aspen tree near the chugging Steamboat spring and started a cabin just across the Yampa River by Soda Creek. His family moved to the cabin in the spring of 1876. For five years they were the only permanent settlers in the valley. Other pioneer families came to the area in 1880. In 1883 a Boulder group bought 600 acres of prime land along the Yampa River and formed the Steamboat Springs Company. The Company platted the town and offered lots for new settlers, and used their financial resources to bring in a sawmill and a newspaper and build a bath house at the hot springs in town. Growth was slow, however, as only 18 buildings were erected by the end of 1887. The year 1888 was a boom year for the fledgling town. Thirty-one new buildings were constructed and a business directory of the town listed over 30 businesses and tradesmen. The boom in construction continued for several years until tapering off in 1894. In that year Crawford built a stone mansion for himself less than 200 yards from his original cabin., indicating he had faith that the town of Steamboat Springs would last for centuries. [This book] reveals the early history of the town from the standpoint of the 99 buildings that were constructed in the first 20 years from 1874 to 1894. Sixteen of those buildings still exist." --
