The Tabor Opera House is a contributing structure in the Leadville Historic District, which is a National Landmark District. All work shall conform to the standards established by the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation, Standards and Guidelines for Historic Preservation and Archeology, and Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties. The Tabor Opera House was built in 1879 in the Italianate Style. It is a 27,000 square-foot brick structure with three floors of commercial space, including a ballroom, auditorium, stage and dressing rooms. It was recognized as a Colorado Most Endangered Place and a National Treasure of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. It was also the recipient of a Save America's Treasures grant. The Project involves the rehabilitation of the masonry and windows on the east (rear) and north elevations. Both building components are highly deteriorated, requiring skilled craftspeople to carry out the work.
