Fort Collins, Colorado is a cool city. It has plenty of stores and shopping, great bike paths, lots of hiking areas, and a hipstery vibe. However, I think one of the coolest things about Fort Collins is that the city was built around a farming town. As you traverse the streets of the city, you will see old buildings that were left standing as new, more modern buildings encircle them.
Here are just a few examples of this.
Old Barns
This old barn is right next to a bank, eateries (Pancake House and Fuzzy’s) and a cycling shop.
