Buildings that once stood here were constructed in 1909 as the Coliseum Hotel and Saltwater Natatorium. The Coliseum Hotel was designed on a European plan offering 75 guest rooms, commodious dining room, library and a fine gymnasium and the only salt water swimming pool east of Salt Lake City. The hotel obtained salt water from a well 740 ft. deep on the property. A single story addition covered the well casing which remained hidden from changing owners, but provided a tube from the subsoil to the surface inside the building.
