Greeley Museum
Greeley, CO

Established in 1928, the Greeley Tribune Building has been a remarkable part of the City of Greeley, CO. Housing offices of the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District (NCWCD) and newspaper offices and for nearly 85 years, the Tribune is now preserved as the Greeley Museum.
The existing building is a two story, 32,414 square foot structure that consists of a flat roof, terra cotta masonry front facade, and a sturdy concrete foundation. This historic building also includes extensive wood base and trim, elaborate ironwork, and vertical, single-light-fixed pane windows.
Renovation to the museum has been done with outstanding care for the historic attributes. All new mechanical and electrical systems were added to enhance the health of the building. The systems include a humidification system used to preserve artifacts both in exhibits and archive storage with adequate lighting to express the remarkable architecture. All the finishes used in the historic areas were matched to the existing building to maintain the look and feel of the original. Some additions to the building have also been made such as an elevator and a glass atrium for ADA accessibility into the building.
