Description

A 35mm color slide of the Crescent Grange building at 7901 West 120th Avenue, 1979. Crescent Grange Number 136 was established in Broomfield in 1898 to represent local farmers' interests. By 1916, the chapter was able to construct its own building off 120th Avenue, where several Broomfielders met and socialized. The image shows the white Grange hall from the front. An overhanging awning is seen over the front doors, with lettering reading "Crescent Grange 136." The address number, 7901, is lettered vertically on one of the awning's support pillars. Windows are on either side of the front doors. The roof is also visible, with brick chimney to the viewer's left. Other houses and parked cars are partially visible on either side of the building. A church sign is also visible from the side in front of the building on a sidewalk. Inscription, in ink, on the front paper border states, "Crescent Grange."
