Additional Property Attributes

The Property is developed with a four-story 16,080 sq. ft. building with 31 rooms, evaporative cooling and steam radiator heating. The location of the Property is illustrated on Figure 1. A map illustrating land use in the vicinity of the Property is provided as Figure 2.
The St. Cloud Hotel was originally built in Silver Cliff in 1883 but could not make a profit there. The hotel was dismantled and moved to Ca�on City in 1886.
Using the pieces and parts from Silver Cliff, the hotel was rebuilt in Ca�on City, adding a mansard roof. The new hotel boasted an elevator, a bar, a billiard room, call buzzers in every room and hot and cold baths. By 1888, the hotel had electric lighting and an outside telephone connection.
The Hotel St. Cloud has also been called the Hotel Denton, Miller Hotel and Hotel Ca�on before returning to St. Cloud Hotel in 1987. Remodeling projects have added bathtubs and flush toilets in each room. The number of rooms in the hotel decreased from 100 rooms when it opened in 1886 to just 35 rooms by 1998.
Many businesses have been housed in the building's commercial spaces. Some of these include the Ku Klux Klan in 1925, both Continental and National Trailways Bus Systems, Havens Men's Shop and Ladies Ready to Wear.
During the height of Ca�on City's run as a silent movie production the hotel inadvertently became the set for filming when a 1914 fire broke out in the building. The headline of The Ca�on City Record on June 25, 1914 read "$10,000 Fire at Hotel Denton Monday Morning." The sub headline was "Guests Escape in Night Clothes - Thrilling Rescues and Brave Deeds of Fire Fighting Staged."
Actors who have stayed at the hotel through the years include Tom Mix, Jack Donahoo, Scott Brady, Burt Lancaster, Slim Pickins, and Charles Bronson.
The hotel and the entire downtown district of Ca�on City are listed on the National Historic Register.
Surrounding properties are primarily commercial. The Property is bounded to the east by South 7th Street; to the south by Main Street and Hair Boutique by Clarita, Jim's Barber Shop, and offices of the Fremont Democratic Party; and to the west by My Brother's Place, a live music karaoke bar. There was also a Standard Oil Company gas station that operated on the east adjoining property (east of 7th Street) between 1926 and 1988.
Commercial (.18)
