Title	Main Street, Central City
Summary	View looking south down unpaved Main Street in Central City, Colorado, at about 9:00 a.m. The buildings consist of one and two-story clapboard storefronts with false fronts and rectangular windows. The street is littered with building materials, boards, and debris. In the foreground, a pile of plywood blocks the entire street, as men work. Two horse-drawn carts are parked along the street. Pedestrians walk along the street on wood-plank sidewalks. Signs include: "Drug Store" "Hardward Stoves & Tin Ware" "Bookstore" and "Books & Stationery." A few log cabins, one unfinished, are on the barren hills in background.
