Liggett is an unincorporated community in Boulder County, Colorado, United States.[1] It is to the northwest of Lafayette.

Description

Liggett is mostly rural grassland, with a few buildings. Nearby are two lakes, Boulder Creek, and a former Union Pacific rail line currently owned by the Regional Transportation District. Directly to the west of Liggett is 95th Street, heading south to Lafayette and north to Longmont. A second road, Valmont Road, terminates at 95th Street and heads west to Boulder.

The post office in Boulder serves Liggett addresses.[2]

History

Liggett was established prior to 1904, and was originally known as White Rock. The name was changed to Liggett sometime between 1945 and 1957.[3] The railway was built through the area in the early 1870s by the Denver & Boulder Valley Railroad, and connected Boulder to Brighton.[4]

The rail line was acquired by the Union Pacific Railroad via a merger in 1898, and later bought by the Regional Transportation District in 2009.[5]

Name

The origin is not known for certain, but the community is possibly named after Liggett, Indiana.
