EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Fifteenth Street looking to Blake, c. 1880-89" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Denver, Colorado during the late 19th century. The image captures a mesmerizing aerial view of this frontier town's urban landscape. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, our eyes are drawn to the various architectural facades that line Fifteenth Street. From a Printing and Binding shop to a livery and clothier establishment, each building tells its own story of commerce and industry in this growing city. The prominent landmarks featured in the photo include the Merchants Hotel and Colorado National Bank, which stand tall amidst their surroundings. These structures serve as reminders of Denver's rapid development during this era. In addition to these commercial establishments, we catch glimpses of stables dotting the street below. These stables were essential for transportation in an era when horses were still widely used. The photographer skillfully captures both the grandeur and grittiness of life on Fifteenth Street at that time. This image transports us back to an age where horse-drawn carriages traversed dusty roads while people went about their daily lives. With its rich historical significance and stunning composition, this photograph is not just a glimpse into Denver's past but also serves as a testament to the spirit of progress that defined America's western frontier townscape during this period.
