Leadville City Hall
Be careful crossing the intersection!
At the northeast corner of West 8th and Harrison
is Leadville City Hall. Built
in 1905 as a federal building, it was used as the US Post Office
until 1973. As the story goes, the postmaster used the small attic
windows to spy on his employees as they delivered mail around
town. Note the plaque on the front of the building which denotes
fallen lawmen. On display in the lobby is an antique Leadville
popcorn wagon. You are welcome to step inside this building.
