Chief Hosa Lodge Located in Genesee Park, the Chief Hosa Lodge was built in 1918. The Lodge’s namesake is Little Raven, an Arapahoe tribal leader who was charged with keeping peace in the area. He was given “Hosa” as an honorary title; which in the Ute language means peaceful and beautiful. He was one of the first Native American emissaries to Congress; signing treaties with Ulysses S. Grant and then Governor Evans.
Montclair Civic Building – “The Molkery”
Completed in 1888 by Walter Baron Von Richtofen, this historic building began as a Consumptive Resort for tuberculosis patients. The Baron had extensive land ownership in the Montclair area, which now boasts one of the oldest suburban communities in the Metro area. After Denver’s annexation of Montclair in 1911, the city purchased the building making it the oldest community center in the system.
