ilu? 1? The capitol city of Denver was the center of CoIorado's rail network by 1890. Critics continued to complain that Denver was a city without reason for existing but the Denver and Rio-Grande proved them all wrong. While the city grows, the face of Denver is constantly changing as Urban Renewal is vastly altering the appearance of lower downtown Denver. Untouched by this demolition, the Daniels and Fisher tower remains in tact to remind us of our historical past. Travellers constantly registered surprise at what they termed Denver's solid progress despite all the discouraging circumstances. The crude log cabins and tents of the first years were soon replaced with frame houses and brick structures. The amazement at the speed with which Denver took on the aspects of an older, more established town was shared by all. , f f 4r F fkfly D l D ,i ,lt Ji? fl? left? Lyla ff .1 lf' flf' X rr? 4 A , .
