The Broomfield post office opened on September 26, 1884. Historians think the town was named for the sorghum grown in the area, known as broomcorn, whose stalks were sold to make brooms. Railroads shaped the area: the Colorado Central built a narrow-gauge line from Golden in 1873, the Denver, Utah and Pacific arrived in 1881 and was widened to standard gauge in 1889, and the Denver, Marshall and Boulder Railway came through in 1886. An early name for the place was Zang's Spur, after the rail spur serving Adolph Zang's grain fields.
The Denver-Boulder Turnpike was built through Broomfield to speed travel between the capital and the university city. Construction began in 1950, and the road opened on January 19, 1952, with its only toll plaza at Broomfield. The toll was 10 cents from Federal Boulevard to Broomfield and 15 cents from Broomfield to Boulder. The City of Broomfield was incorporated on June 6, 1961, in the southeast corner of Boulder County, and it grew as a residential town for commuters on the turnpike. On September 14, 1967, having paid off its costs, the turnpike was made free and became U.S. Route 36, the first public toll road in the United States to become free. After decades of growth across county lines, Broomfield later became its own consolidated city and county. Sources Wikipedia: Broomfield, Colorado
