You caught me, Chris! I spied this scale building in a book. I think it would make a terrific model, but I just don't have anyplace for it. Do we know where it was on the smelter campus? The best map I have seen is the D&RGW track folio used as end papers for Chris James' book.
I am looking to build the building on the east side of Hemlock just north of 9th Street. This was part of the lumber yard that included the C&S Freight House and will become Britton Lumber in my Leadville. I like the building because it has an odd cupola and well, I am an architect and like odd buildings. I have not got back to Leadville in a couple years to photograph it, and Google has not seen fit to drive down either Hemlock or 9th.
