Designed by John J. Huddart and Greeley architect Sidney Frazier, the State Armory served as the training facility for the Greeley unit of the Colorado National Guard and housed sporting events and community activities. It served as a morgue when a commercial airliner exploded over Weld County and again when children were killed in a train-school bus accident. It characterizes the Mediterranean Revival style, featuring the symmetrical façade, arched windows, use of brick and terra cotta and towers with parapets extending above the roof. The City of Greeley Historic Preservation Commission designated this property on the Greeley Historic Register in 2009.
