Ghost Towns Guest Book |
Central City Colorado Townsite - Ghost town Central City Colorado is known as the riches square mile on the Earth. Central City was one of the first Ghost towns I visited in Colorado. That is almost 30 years ago. It has changed since then as limited stakes gambling started here in October of 1991. There is still plenty to see as most of the growth and new casinos were built just a mile down the road in Black Hawk. Central City is only a mile away from Black Hawk but it is 500 feet higher in elevation. PS - don't believe the stories about the face on the ballroom floor. Yes, the face is there. No, the stories of how it got there are not true.
