"This is the 1911 Citizen’s Bank Building, today known as the Boyd Building. For years, it was the city’s tallest office building. Doctors, dentists, and lawyers kept the offices full upstairs. The bank went broke during the nation’s recession of 1924 and was converted to retail sales space. But, the vault still remains there." (from Downtown Cheyenne Historic Walking Tour (

"About the Boyd Building:
The Boyd Building was constructed in 1912; it is six stories tall and was the tallest building in Cheyenne for many years. It was originally the Citizens National Bank until 1924, and in 1925 H.N. Boyd purchased the building and renamed it. Boyd first established a cigar store down the block in 1908 and then moved to the first floor of the Boyd Building, which City News has occupied since 1969." (from (
