1858 Busy Cabin Denver Erected Thoroughfare Years 1895
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the bustling energy of Larimer Street in Denver, Colorado, circa 1895. Thirty-seven years have passed since the first cabin was erected on this very site in 1858, marking the beginning of the Mile High City's storied history. The image reveals a vibrant scene of horse-drawn carriages and wagons navigating the cobblestone street, as pedestrians dressed in Victorian attire go about their daily business. The mountainous backdrop serves as a striking reminder of the city's picturesque setting nestled at the foot of the Rockies. The atmosphere is alive with the sounds of commerce and industry, as the promise of opportunity and progress beckons to the intrepid souls who have made their way to this burgeoning frontier town. This photograph is a testament to the resilience and determination of Denver's early settlers, who transformed a rugged wilderness into a thriving metropolis.
