History: Peter McCourt was the older brother of Denver’s famed Baby Doe Tabor who was married to Horace Tabor.. Peter McCourt originally came to Leadville, CO in the 1870’s during the gold rush. Peter McCourt was later made the manager of Tabor Opera House in Leadville, CO after being introduced to Horace Tabor, who soon became his brother-in-law. 10 years later, Peter McCourt moved to Denver and became manager of the Tabor Grand Opera House in Denver , during this time the McCourt Mansion was built and funded by Horace Tabor The McCourt Mansion was one of the first homes in Denver on city gas mains for lighting. There are 350 year old quarter-sawn oak bookshelves as well as wood paneling all saved from a home in England and transported and installed in the McCourt Mansion. These remain today. Plaster crown molding, stained glass windows and beaded paneling have all survived since the McCourt Mansion was built.
The McCourt Mansion was built with a two story carriage house with room for horses to be housed on the main level while the house staff lived on the second floor.
Peter McCourt eventually purchased the Tabor Grand Opera House in Denver, and for the rest of his life was a predominant figure in Denver theater. After Horace Tabor lost everything in the silver crash of 1893, he and Baby Doe Tabor lived for two years with Peter McCourt at the McCourt Mansion. The McCourt Mansion, is the last surviving Historic Home of Denver in which the Tabors had lived.
Legend says that the ghost of Horace Tabor wanders the halls of the McCourt Mansion with sightings of him in tails and a top hat. Supposedly, the ghost once even asked a young child if he “knew where Peter was?”.
Peter McCourt died in 1929. The McCourt Mansion then became the Barnes Business School. Later the McCourt Mansion served as a group home for the mentally handicapped. Today, the McCourt Mansion serves as the office of Zupkus & Angell, P.C., a Denver law firm.
