Scope and Contents

251 x 152 mm. A view looking out over the city, with the Rocky Mountains visible in the distance. Denver was first settled in 1858, and as this picture shows in the abundance of large, solid houses, grew quickly in the 1870s and 1880s with the discovery of gold and silver in the area. The less crowded suburbs and their smaller houses can also be seen in the distance.

Dates: 1885
