View down Pine Street into Central City, Colorado, where the dirt road is the focal point of the photograph. Vegetation, masonry walls, fences, and telephone posts line the road. A two-story, brick, flat-roofed home with rectangular windows is on the left side of the road. A white, wood-frame, one-story house with a gabled roof and chimney is on the left side of the road. Central City, Central Hill, Quartz Hill, and Winnebago Hill are in the background. The Coeur d'Alene Mine, which is surrounded by tailings, is on the far left.
