By the 1870s, the word was out about Colorado. East coast and Midwest prospectors, European immigrants, and African Americans newly freed from slavery, rushed to Denver to find work and their fortune in silver and gold. Captured here in almost 200 vintage images is the story of the African Americans who escaped the oppression and racism of the post Civil War South, and created a city within a city: the Five Points neighborhood of Denver. Named in 1881 for a bustling five-way intersection, the Five Points area became the commercial and social sector for African American churches, businesses, clubs, and homes, and the heart of Denver's black community. Showcased here are the photographs of once thriving Five Points businesses in the Welton Street business district, such as Otha Rice's Tap Room and Oven and the Rossonian Hotel, as well as the familiar faces of the Cosmopolitan Club, Madame CJ Walker, and Dr. Justina Ford, Denver's first African-American female doctor.

Welcome to Denver, Colorado. Everyone knows that an historic downtown has enormous character but no one captures that character with as much artistry and detail as Karl Christian Krumpholz. In Queen City, the skyline springs to life to tell this town's rich history. Booms and busts, historic moments, and colorful characters are all presented in this collection with personality and finesse. Over time businesses close, structures crumble and, memory of how things were in happier moments fades. Now preserved and documented with fun facts and tidbits which accompany each drawing, Queen City is a wonderful collection and a testament to Denver's lasting legacy.
