Edgeplain, University dormitory in Colorado Springs, United States.
The Tudor Revival residence at 1106 N. Nevada Avenue features ornamental stone walls made from multi-hued sandstone with rusticated dressings.
Attorney Lyman K. Bass commissioned architect A.C. Willard to design this residence in 1881, selecting the location near Colorado College for its health benefits.
Chester Alan Arthur II, son of President Chester Arthur, transformed the residence into a social center, hosting Vice President Theodore Roosevelt in 1901.
The building currently functions as a student residence hall at Colorado College, accommodating approximately 20 students with shared living and kitchen spaces.
The name Edgeplain originated from its position at the border of undeveloped prairie land, marked by an inscription visible on the porch.
