THEN AND NOW

One of my favorite parts of the Seattle Times Newspaper's Sunday edition was the then and now photos of Seattle.  Here are some then and now of Santa Rosalia.  "Then" pictures come from a mural hanging in the local mining museum.  Don't know when it was drawn, but the mine looks to be in full operation.






I HOPE THIS IS TORN DOWN
BEFORE IT FALLS ON SOMEONE



TREES SHADE THE PARK NOW 

 OLD HOUSING HAS SURVIVED
FAIRLY INTACT











One more from the mural.

THERE ARE A LOT OF HOUSES
IN THE BACKGROUND

The houses in Santa Rosalia might have been for workers in the ore refining plant.
