The Zeller Building

This building was constructed in 1885 and by the following spring Ignatz Zeller had opened a jewelry shop here. Zeller was well known throughout Colorado for his jewelry which used gold and silver native of this county.

In 1886 the E. Q. Thero Meat Market was located at 1516 Miner. In 1910 the building at 1510 Miner was occupied by a stationery store operated by E. J. Deis and later by Ralph Woodward. It continued as such until 1946 when publisher Harold Ashmun moved the Clear Creek Mining Journal into 1510 Miner Street. The newspaper eventually became the Front Range Journal. The journalism tradition continued when the Clear Creek Courant relocated here in 1983 and published from this building until 1990.
