  • Georgetown–Silver Plume Historic District
    Teacher Resource Set Title Georgetown-Silver Plume Historic District Developed by Cathy Fuller, Middle School Teacher, Guardian Angels School, Denver CO Grade Level 4 Essential Question Who were the early settlers of Georgetown and Silver Plume? How did social class determine the development of each of these towns? And how did this influence the architecture and design of each? How has this region been able to prosper over time? Contextual Paragraph According to the Colorado Encyclopedia, the Georgetown-Silver Plume Historic District is one of the best-preserved historic mining districts in Colorado. Located in the upper Clear Creek Valley, Georgetown thrived as a commercial and professional center, while Silver Plume developed as a diverse town of working-class miners. The diversities in these two towns provides an excellent opportunity to understand the differences in the cultures tied to the practice in mining throughout Colorado. Silver Plume, home to the men who worked in the mines, is a hodgepodge of different ethnicities. The different sections in the Silver Plume cemetery (organized by religion and ethnicity) offer a greater understanding of who lived and worked in the region. Similarly, the architecture of homes and other structures in Georgetown speak to the class of those who lived in the town. Significant architectural-style structures found in the Historic District and described in the National Register of Historic Places include Hamill House, Maxwell House, Luedde House, Spencer House, Bowman-White House, Public School, Hotel de Paris, Clear Creek County Court House, the Old Jail and Grace Episcopal Church. After World War II, this area evolved into a tourist attraction and continues to be a popular destination for Front Range residents.

Sections of the original wagon road can be seen below in the valley and are used today as Morrison Road. The top two photos show the road as it travels west out of Empire and begins to climb up Berthoud Pass. Sections of the original wagon road were used for the footprint of the auto road in Mileage Posts 252-253 and also in 254 – 255, but not this one.

  • Clear Creek/Central City Explanation of Significant
    SDMS Document ID -.-. A Strn o fnn!»*o* 2008929 CLEAR CREEK/CENTRAL CITY SUPERFUND SITE EXPLANATION OF SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES ARGO & BIG FIVE MINE WASTE PILES INTRODUCTION The Clear Creek/Central City Superfund Site (the Site) is located on the east slope of Colorado's Front Range, approximately 30 miles west of Denver (Figure 1). The Site was placed on the National Priorities List in September 1983 because of impacts to Clear Creek from historic mining activities. EPA and the Colorado Department of Public Health and the Environment (CDPHE) refer to the Clear Creek basin as the Clear Creek/Central City Superfund Study Area. Within this broad study area, several discrete draining mines and mine dumps have been identified as the Site. Currently included in the Site are 23 properties - six mine tunnels and 17 mine waste piles. The Argo and Big Five mine waste piles are two of these properties and are the subject of this document. They are both located in Idaho Springs, Colorado (Figure 2). EPA selected a remedy for the Argo and Big Five mine waste piles in the Operable Unit #2 Record of Decision (OU#2 ROD) which was signed March 31, 1988. This document explains the significant difference between the remedy selected in the OU#2 ROD and the one now planned for the Argo and Big Five mine waste piles. CDPHE is the lead agency for the Site and is conducting the remedial design and remedial action for these properties with funds provided by EPA via cooperative agreements. Under Section 117 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA or Superfund), as amended by the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 (SARA), 42 U.S.C.

  • THE COLORADO MAGAZINE Published Bi-Monthly by the State Historical Society of Colorado
    THE COLORADO MAGAZINE Published bi-monthly by The State Historical Society of Colorado Vol. XVII Denver, Colorado, May, 1940 No. 3 Place Names in Colorado (B)* Bachelor, Mineral County. Named for the Bachelor Mine, which was staked out in 1884 by George 'Wilson. One version is that the camp was so-named because of the absence of women. Between 1895 and 1908 the town had a population of more than a thousand inhabitants. It was abandoned after the highway was built, the population moving to Jim Town, which later became Creede. 1 Bachelor Switch, Ouray County. This town was named for the Bachelor Mine, Uncompahgre District,2 and its location at a switch on the Rio Grande Southern Railroacl. 3 Bailey, Park County. Bailey was named for a settler, William Bailey, who established a hotel and stage station here in 1864. 'l'he station was known as Bailey's Ranch; the later settlement adopted the name, later shortening it.4 In 1878 the narrow-gage Denver & South Park Railroad made Bailey its terminal. Bakers Crossing, Arapahoe County. In 1859 Jim Baker, fa. mous Mountain Man, established a small store here and operated a toll bridge, built to replace the old ferry ; hence the name. Baker's adobe house stood on the south side of Clear Creek, near what is now 53rd and 'l'ennyson Streets in the present city of Denver.5 Bakers Park, San Juan County. This was the first permanent settlement on the present site of Silverton, and was named for the surrounding area, which had been called Bakers Park since 1860.
