Former El Paso County Public Health HQ
Discover this verified location instantly
This mid-century modern facility, constructed in 1962 as the International Typographical Union Training Center, is a sprawling concrete structure that later served for decades as the El Paso County Public Health headquarters. While the building holds significant local history related to the printing industry and community health services, it has remained vacant since the department's relocation, leading to its current state of industrial decay. The site is situated on a high-visibility corner and is subject to rigorous surveillance, with private security teams frequently patrolling the perimeter in unmarked civilian vehicles at 30 to 60-minute intervals. Because of its proximity to the historic Union Printers Home and its status as a frequent target for exploration, the property is heavily monitored, with guards often conducting foot checks of the entry points and surrounding fencing.
