The Church of St. Philip-in-the-Field and Bear Canon Cemetery is a historic church building and cemetery in Sedalia, Colorado. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.It is a white frame clapboard building, with a 22 by 30 feet (6.7 m × 9.1 m) nave built in 1872 of rough lumber hauled over a difficult trail.Saint Philip in-the-field Episcopal church has been at this location since 1888, but construction on the church dates back all the way to 1872. In that year, trustees at the newly formed Bear Cañon Methodist Congregation commissioned Newton S. Grout, a former drummer boy for the Union Army, to construct the first church of Douglas County. As the main carpenter of the church's construction, he wished to fashion its design after a smaller church in Maine where he had worshipped as a child. With plenty of initial money and labor donated to the construction, the exterior was quickly finished, but a later lack of funding prevented the completion of the inside. Despite this setback, the church opened that same year, using planks supported by boxes as pews and was used by various faiths. In 1884, the long-delayed interior building was resumed but didn't last very long when a man posing as a Methodist minister disappeared with the $600 of fundraising money meant for the church's construction. Two years later in 1886, Bishop Reverend William Spaulding of the Episcopal Diocese of Colorado traded St. Mark's Church in Bergen Park (modern-day Evergreen) for the unfinished church. William Curtis and John Harris were put in charge to supervise the construction. Curtis drew the plans and Harris worked as the carpenter, and when the work was completed, the interior included a sanctuary, sacristy, vestibule, pews, chancel, altar, communion rail, and brick chimney. The church was dedicated to Saint Philip in-the-field and held its opening services on December 23, 1888. The surrounding Bear Cañon cemetery was established in 1870, and the first still identifiable graves were laid in 1874 in the Northwest corner of the cemetery. By the 1970s, five generations of families and veterans from five wars had been buried in the cemetery. The mission center behind the church was built in 1970. On April 11, 1973, both the church and cemetery were placed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The Santa Fe Railway Water Tank, or Sedalia Water Tank, on the railway through Sedalia, Colorado in Douglas County, Colorado, is a historic object listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is a cylindrical water tank 24 feet (7.3 m) in diameter, 43 feet (13 m) tall, with capacity of 140,000 US gallons (530 m3), upon a slag foundation, built in 1906. Per its NRHP nomination, it was installed by the Denver and Santa Fe Railway Company, a subsidiary of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway (AT&SF), an early railroad which built track through the area in 1887. It provided water for coal-powered steam locomotives from 1906 until 1950 when its "stand pipe" was removed, after water was no longer needed (when diesel locomotives had replaced steam ones). It was described in its NRHP nomination as follows: It was deemed significant "for its association with the operation of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway (AT&SF), an early railroad that constructed its track through the area in 1887. The tank provided water for the coal-fired steam locomotives that ran the line. At the end of WW II, diesel engines began replacing steam locomotives, and the need for large water tanks at frequent intervals along the rails diminished. Most steam locomotives were retired by the 1950s. It was later deeded to the Sedalia Water and Sanitation District for the community’s water supply. The period of significance began with the construction of the tank in 1906 and ended in 1950 when the stand pipe was removed. The steel tank also meets the registration requirements under criterion C for it represents a distinctive design and construction method. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, water stations usually consisted of elevated wooden water tanks. Steel tanks began to replace wood on some railroads after the turn of the century. The steel tank at Sedalia is an early example of the evolving technology, and it is believed to be one of the last surviving steel water tanks in the state."It is located within the railway right-of-way, about 200 yards (180 m) west of the intersection of U.S. Route 85 with State Highway 67 U.S. Route 85. It is closer to U.S. 85 and directly visible from that highway. It is also visible from Colorado State Highway 67, at least from its crossing of the rail tracks.

The Louviers Village Club, in Louviers, Colorado, was built in 1917 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995.It was built by E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company to serve as a community building in the company town of Louviers. It is a U-shaped building, built in Craftsman style. It was deemed significant for NRHP listing "for its association with the explosive industry's contribution to the development of the West, social history as illustrated by the company town movement, and for the information it provides regarding entertainment and recreation in the early Twentieth Century. During the Nineteenth and early Twentieth Centuries, E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company pioneered the development and manufacture of explosives in the United States. Business was brisk for the Du Pont Powder Company by the early Twentieth Century, when dynamite products were in great demand for use in mining and in railroad, tunnel and road construction. Du Pont, the nation's leading supplier of explosives at the time, was unable to fill all of the orders for its products. In order to expand its production capabilities, Du Pont sought new sites for the establishment of explosives plants. The company was particularly desirous of locating a plant in the Rocky Mountain region due to the fact that there were then no sources for explosives closer than the West Coast or the Mississippi River. In 1906, Du Pont procured a site on Plum Creek adjacent to the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad line. First called "Toluca" after a station on the line, the name was quickly changed to "Louviers" after the ancestral home in France of the DuvPont family. Dynamite production at Louviers began in 1908, with over a half million pounds produced the first year. By 1951, "Louviers Works", as the plant was called, produced over two million pounds of dynamite per month and employed 230 workers. In 1971, after the production of an estimated one billion pounds of dynamite, the company shifted emphasis to production of PETN and a new emulsion explosive product. Operations at the plant ceased in the early 1980s. The plant facilities were extensively modified over time in keeping with technological advances, and are still maintained by Du Pont on a care taking basis. Du Pont retains ownership of the majority of land immediately surrounding the town of Louviers."
