The plans for the historic Colorado Springs City Auditorium

The historic Colorado Springs City Auditorium was built in in the 1920s to be a key hub for events of all types in the city’s downtown region. Through the years, the building has probably hosted the most diverse selection of concerts and events than anywhere else in the city.
