Est. 1900 · Grand Junction Commercial History · Mesa County Downtown Development · Treece Furniture Company 1928-1973
Main Street in Grand Junction developed as the Western Slope's primary commercial corridor in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The building at 336 Main, constructed around 1900, was one of several multi-story brick commercial structures built to house the growing retail economy of Mesa County.
The Treece Furniture Company occupied the building from 1928 to 1973, a continuous 45-year tenancy that gave the structure its most lasting commercial identity. Furniture retailers were fixtures in small-city commercial districts of this era — selling household goods to a population of ranchers, miners, and their families across a geographically isolated region.
After Treece's departure, the building went through successive commercial uses before becoming home to Dolce Vita, a downtown restaurant. The building's age and the long Treece tenancy created a physical history that is now woven into local accounts of its paranormal reputation.
Sources
The specific accounts at Dolce Vita are concentrated in two areas: the women's restroom and the empty sections of the building outside business hours.
The restroom apparition — an elderly woman in clothing described as turn-of-the-century style — is the most frequently cited element. Staff and at least one patron have reported seeing the figure, described as a full-body apparition that appears and disappears without explanation. No identity has been documented for the apparition.
A second account involves a full-length mirror crashing when a patron reportedly saw something in its reflection. The circumstances of the account are consistent with the broader pattern of object movement associated with the site.
Footsteps and voices heard in the building when verified to be empty are reported by staff — a common category of paranormal claim, but cited consistently across accounts of the building. US Ghost Adventures names Dolce Vita among Grand Junction's key haunted dining sites.
The building at 336 Main Street is one of downtown Grand Junction's older commercial structures, built around 1900. It housed the Treece Furniture Company from 1928 to 1973 before transitioning to restaurant use. Dining here is the primary public experience; the reported paranormal activity is concentrated in the women's restroom and empty sections of the building after hours.
Every HauntBound history is researched from documented sources. We clearly separate verified historical fact from paranormal folklore.
Salida, CO
The building at 136 E 2nd St in Salida began as a furniture store around 1890, then served as the Stewart Mortuary for most of the 20th century before transitioning to commercial and restaurant use. It currently operates as Amicas, a pizza and beer establishment.
Durango, CO
The building at 945 Main Ave in Durango was the site of a fatal law enforcement shooting in January 1906. Durango Deputy Marshal Jesse Stansel shot La Plata County Sheriff William Thompson during an altercation; Thompson died from his injuries. The address operated through multiple businesses before El Moro Spirits and Tavern opened in 2013.
Greensboro, NC
M'Coul's Public House operates in the former Piedmont Hotel building on W McGee Street in downtown Greensboro. The Piedmont Hotel served as a brothel for some portion of its history, reportedly into the 1960s. The building's transition to an Irish pub brought new life to the space but preserved the history of its former occupants — or so the ghost stories suggest.
