Google Map. This might have been the exact location of the former roller rink upstairs. The view has changed a lot. Might have been a different building before that. Please check the website page about the Pearl Street. Interesting history.
A roller rink A-Colorado 1043-47 Pearl St., Boulder, CO
This rink I discovered while researching for a different rink on the same street which was dated later I believe and different block number. This was one of oldest in Boulder, Colorado. It began in or around 1883 that the first floor of the building had two equally-sized spaces split by a (still existing) staircase providing access to the second floor. On that second floor, it was a skating rink. It went out of business in 1890 when a plumbing store opened there that year. Many businesses come and went on that block. Today it is a foodie's favorite spot and named by a magazine for one of the best in nation.
This 1043 to 1047 Pearl Street block is preserved as a landmark.
The rink itself is definitely a wooden floor because it was on second floor. Maple? Perhaps or perhaps a different wood. It is unknown.
The Interior.
A wooden floor because it was on second floor. Maple? Perhaps or perhaps a different wood. It is unknown. The stairs which split between equal halves of this building on this street leads to second floor where the rink was which covered the two halves.
The Exterior.
