The neon sign from the Lakewood Lodge, 5601 West Colfax Avenue (US 40), Lakewood Colorado. Can’t find the date for this one, but it is alternatively listed as the home of a ”Sexually Violent Predator” and one of the “Fun Things for Couples to Do in Denver”…go figure.
The Trail’s End Motel sign, 9025 Colfax Avenue (I-70 Business Loop), Lakewood Colorado. Not the trails end, anymore; buried in the suburban sprawl west of Denver.
The Aristocrat Motor Hotel sign, 4855 Colfax Avenue (I-70 Business Loop), Lakewood Colorado. Now a Volunteers of America (a veterans service organization) family motel. Hotel and sign are probably from 1964. Although one site lists late 1950’s.
