Douglass City Ghost Town - Typical of the short-lived ghost towns of the Colorado Rockies was Douglass City - The remains of which you see here. Douglass City however was built for a different purpose - to house Italian construction workers who labored on the Colorado Midland in this area and who helped construct the Hagerman tunnel, trestles, etc. This one street "city"had eight saloons, mostly in tents, plus a dance hall. Here the "Professor" played the piano, while the Ladies of the evening too jaded for Leadville, entertained and took the laborers money. The wild city was the scene of drinking. shooting. fighting. knifing and other innocent pleasures. - Forest Service Sign at the entrance to Douglass City Ghost Town, Colorado USA
