DATE: May 15, 2001
FORT COLLINS CITY COUNCIL
10 FROM: Karen McWilliams
SUBJECT:
First Reading of Ordinance No. 94, 2001,Designating the Nix Farm, 1745 Hoffman Mill Road, as
a Local Landmark Pursuant to Chapter 14 of the Code of the City of Fort Collins.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance on First Reading. At a public hearing held on April
19, 2001, the Landmark Preservation Commission unanimously recommended designation of this
property as a landmark for its architectural and historical importance to Fort Collins.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The owner of the property, the City of Fort Collins, is initiating this request for local landmark
designation for the Nix Farm. The property contains two residences, a ramp barn, and an
equipment/animal shed. These buildings and structures have architectural significance to Fort
Collins, as excellent examples of both Craftsman and vernacular, farm-related architecture. The
ramp barn in particular is highly significant as a rare example of this specialized barn construction
technique. Additionally,the Nix Farm buildings and site have historical significance to Fort Collins,
for their representation of and association with the agricultural development of Fort Collins.
History -According to Tom and Patsy Nix,the Nix Farm land was originally owned by F.R.Baker,
in the early 1870s. Frederick R. Baker arrived in Fort Collins in 1873, and took up a homestead
patent on a parcel of land including this property. In the spring of 1895, Baker was elected mayor
of Fort Collins, and served for four terms. One of his notable accomplishments while in office was
in passing the 1896 Prohibition Ordinance. The sale of alcohol was banned in Fort Collins until
1969, when the ordinance was finally repealed. Baker was also responsible for the establishment
of City Park. Eventually, the Baker farm was sold, and in the late 1950's Tom and Patsy Nix
purchased nearly 200 acres from Charles Evans. The Nix's moved their dairy operation to the farm
from their previous location in Hudson,Colorado. The dairy operation initially supported a herd of
50 dairy cows,but this number was increased in 1973 to about 120. This same year,the Nix's sold
119 acres of their land to a gravel company,and five acres to Bath Landscape. The Nix's owned the
remaining piece for about 23 years,before selling the 27.5 acre Nix Farm to the City of Fort Collins
in 1996. The Natural Resources Department intends to utilize the buildings and land for staff offices
and a maintenance facility. ,
The property contains two residences, a ramp barn, and an equipment/animal shed. The primary
residence is a beautiful Craftsman style home, with good architectural integrity. The only exterior
alteration of note was the circa 1995 enclosure of the front porch with windows. The kitchen area
DATE: May 15, 2001 2 ITEM NUMBER: 16
was remodeled in the mid 1960s, and non-historic doors and windows were added to the rear
elevation. The interior was remodeled, in 1962, 1965 and in 1973, but still retains many of the
home's original features,including a large gravity operating water tank in the attic. The ramp bam
is a very rare example of this style of barn construction in the Fort Collins area. The barn was built
to take advantage of the sloping terrain, allowing for the lower level horse stalls. A large quantity
of dirt was then used to create a wide "ramp" to the primary barn doors on the main level. The
structure is also unusual for its size and height. This barn contains a full third story,used primarily
for hay storage. The secondary residence was used primary for housing for the farm's manager or
hired help.The small,L-shaped frame dwelling appears to date to the turn of the century. It may not
be original to the Nix Farm site,and was possibly moved onto the property in the early 1950s by then
property owner Charles Evans. Anecdotal information suggests that it could have at one time been
a part of Evan's property at the intersection of Mountain and College Avenues. Additional research
will need to be conducted on the history of this building. The three-sided equipment/animal shed
is constructed of concrete and sheet metal. The sheet metal roof is supported by timber poles. The
shed is a significant component of the site, both for its vernacular farm architecture and for its
contribution to the farm's sense of place and history.

STAFF REPORT
REQUESTS: Fort Collins Landmark Designation of the Nix Farm, 1745 Hoffman Mill Road,
Fort Collins, Colorado
STAFF CONTACT: Karen McWilliams, Preservation Planner
APPLICANT: Mark Sears, Natural Areas Program Manager.
HISTORY: Staff is pleased to present for your consideration the landmark designation of the
Nix Farm. The Natural Resources Department acquired the approximately 27.5 acre Nix Farm in
1996. The property contains two residences, a ramp barn, and a storage/loafing shed. These
buildings and structures have architectural significance to Fort Collins, as excellent examples of
both Craftsman and vernacular, farm-related, architecture. The ramp barn in particular is highly
significant as a rare example of this specialized barn construction technique.
According to the previous owners, the farm land was originally owned by F. R. Baker, in the
early 1870s. Frederick R. Baker arrived in Fort Collins in 1873, and took up a homestead patent
on a parcel of land including this property. In the spring of 1895, Baker was elected mayor of
Fort Collins, and served for four terms. One of his notable accomplishments while in office was
in passing the 1896 Prohibition Ordinance. The sale of alcohol was banned in Fort Collins until
1969, when the ordinance was finally repealed. Baker was also responsible for the establishment
of City Park. Eventually, the Baker farm was sold, and in the late 1950's Tom and Patsy Nix
purchased nearly 200 acres from Charles Evans. The Nix's moved their dairy operation to the
farm from their previous location in Hudson, Colorado. The dairy operation initially supported a
herd of 50 dairy cows, but this number was increased in 1973 to about 120. This same year, the

Nix's owned the remaining piece for about 23 years,before selling the 27.5 acre Nix Farm to the

The property contains two residences, a ramp barn, and a storage/loafing shed. The primary
residence is a beautiful Craftsman style home, with good architectural integrity. The only

also of sheet metal, is supported by timber poles. Used for equipment and hay storage, and as a
loafing shed for animals, the shed is a significant component of the site,both in its contribution
for its vernacular farm architecture and for its contribution to the farm's sense of place and
