Historic Pueblo

GUS”S PLACE

1201 Elm Street has functioned as an important community gathering place since 1892. The building served as a church for an early African American church, and later as a Mesa Mission for immigrants during the height of teen’s immigration boom. The current use as a neighborhood pub dates from 1934, the first year after prohibition, and demonstrates the neighborhood and community’s dedication to this distinctive place.  Designated 8-10-2009
