The Greeley Tribune newspaper operated out of this building from the completion of construction in 1929 until 1986.

The newspaper saw significant expansion during its occupation of the building.

The Tribune is Weld County’s oldest newspaper and one of the oldest businesses in Greeley, having been started in 1870. Sidney Frazier, counted among Greeley’s noted architects, designed the excellent local example of the Beaux-Arts style. The building exhibits many of the characteristic features of the style including a symmetrical facade, terra cotta ornamentation in the pilasters and cartouche, the semi-circular ironwork canopy, and an entablature with dentils and egg-and-dart molding topped with decorative urns.
