This property is locally significant under Criterion A for Entertainment/Recreation for its historic association with equestrianism and country club recreation in Cherry Hills Village from the 1930s through the present day. In the late-19th century, horse sports emerged as a common means of recreation and entertainment among the city’s wealthy residents. Built in 1936 by divorcée Florence Hughes Kistler for her daughters, Florence and Frances Kistler, both accomplished riders, the Kistler Stables is also locally significant under Criterion A for Social History, specifically Women’s History, for its association with equestrian clubs for young girls and women between 1937 and 1951. The cobblestone stable building on the property is locally significant under Criterion C for Architecture as a distinctive example of the early work of master architect Temple Hoyne Buell.
