DENVER—The Colorado History Museum is finding some history underneath the site where it’s about to start building its new home.
Workers have been excavating the remains of some turn-of-the-century row houses, which have been well-preserved by a parking lot on top of the site. One cellar is nearly intact. Workers have also found dinnerware fragments, architectural hardware and old trash.
The museum is offering free tours to the public of the site on Tuesday and on Thursday starting at 11:30 a.m. Reservations are required and can be made by calling the history museum.
The artifacts will also be on display in the history museum until it closes next March.
Construction of the new museum begins Sept. 1.
