Serving Weld & Boulder Counties
Old Town Erie preserves the town's coal-mining heritage along Briggs Street, where red-brick commercial buildings from the late 1800s and early 1900s now house coffee shops, breweries, and boutique businesses. The surrounding residential blocks mix early-1900s miners' cottages, bungalows, and ranch homes with newer infill, giving buyers a rare chance to own a piece of Front Range history. The neighborhood is compact and walkable, with Erie Community Park, the Coal Creek Trail, and the Erie Community Library all within easy reach. Its location on the Weld County side of the Boulder County line keeps taxes lower than Boulder County while staying minutes from downtown Erie's restaurants and the growing shopping along Erie Parkway.
Old Town Erie is the historic heart of this former coal-mining town, centered on Briggs Street with 1800s brick storefronts, locally owned restaurants, and a genuine small-town Main Street feel that newer Erie neighborhoods can't match.
Briggs Street's brick storefronts host breweries, coffee shops, and restaurants in Erie's original coal-town downtown.
Sidewalk-lined streets put Erie Community Park, the Coal Creek Trail, and the library within a short walk.
Weld County location means lower property taxes than Boulder County while Erie Parkway retail stays minutes away.
