Colorado – Idaho Springs: First National Bank

The First National Bank, at 1542-1546 Miner Street, was constructed in 1880 on land owned by Henry Plummer, who served as the president of the bank. As the first bank in Idaho Springs, it was considered to have the most modern equipment and was furnished in a very elegant, Victorian style. The bank offered safety deposit boxes to its customers and had the only burglar-proof vault in Northern Colorado outside of Denver. Bank officers included notable community business leaders such as Dennis Faivre, George McClelland, J.J. Elliott, Thomas Cooper, William Doe and L. Hanchett.

In 1885, the west half of the building was constructed for Thero and Co., a company specializing in fresh and smoked meats and fish. First National Bank was not able to survive the Depression and the building was sold over the years and leased to a jewelry store, lawyers and accountants. In 1989, the building was purchased by Leo Bradley with the intent to restore it to its original purpose as a community bank. After a renovation, Clear Creek National Bank opened its doors in 1996. The vault is now lit at night and can be seen through the floor to ceiling windows, topped with double sets of Greek Revivial stone pediments, from the street. The original safety deposit boxes were located in a salvage yard and reinstalled in the vault.

The Idaho Springs Downtown Commercial District, roughly bound by Center Alley, 14th Avenue, Riverside Drive, and Idaho Street, has been the commercial center of the community since its development in the late 19th century. The Idaho Springs downtown area, with its collection of Late Victorian-Era structures, formed the core of a city where prospector George A. Jackson made the first placer gold discovery in Colorado. It went on to serve as an important milling and supply center for the mining region which accelerated the settlement of Colorado.
