Pine Hall
Chaffee County
Built ca. 1896, Pine Hall is the only remaining intact representative of false front type construction that typified Granite’s built environment in the nineteenth century, most of which were subsequently destroyed by three historic fires.
Pine Hall.
Distinctive elements of the building type displayed by Pine Hall include the tall, wood false-front façade with symmetrical fenestration; multi-light wood windows; gabled roof rectangular building behind the façade; and walls with drop siding and board-and- batten siding. Pine Hall was built as a gift to the community by August and Elizabeth Pine, early settlers to the area. It hosted all types of social activities and events and played a vital role in the social life of the community at the turn of the twentieth century.
