Park City

Various views of Park City.


	The "sidewalk" to the left is how you get a side walk up a 30 degree slope. The valley in which Park City sits is so narrow and steep sided that at the turn of the century they had walking bridges that crossed over the valley floor. This is where many of the Asian immigrants had businesses and many of the city's elite felt it distasteful to walk among them. The Rio Grande Depot lower left

	The Park City Miners' Hospital is home to the Park City Library. An unusual collaboration between the community and the local miner's union, it was built in 1904 at a cost of $800,000. After the hospital doors closed in the mid 50's, it became a youth hostel. By the 70's however, the structure was vacant and almost demolished. Civic outcry saved the building and in the late 70's the 400 ton structure was relocated to it's present location. It has been part of the library system since 1982 and has been fully restored.
