The Armes Dance Hall, originally named the Globe Theater, was built on this site in 1867 by Major George Armes with money raised by his younger brother in Leavenworth, ostensibly to erect an Episcopal church. Later the building was moved to Fort Hays and became an officers' annex to the post trader's store. Ironically the Catholics (1879), Lutherans (1879), Baptists (1883) and Episcopalians (1910) all built churches in this neighborhood, and the area became known as Gospel Hill.
