Title	Silver City, Downtown
Subject	Cityscapes; dwellings; saloons
Description	Looking north, Bullard is the street on the left, with Main Street on the right, but does not continue as far south as Bullard Street. The Centennial Saloon is the one-storey brick structure (hipped roof with 2 windows facing in upper left) on the NW corner of Bullard and Spring Streets. Judge Potter's home is marked by the dark roof of the house in the far north of the photograph, left of center. Near the south end of Main Street is the cabin of William Milby, one of the first structures in the cienega.
Notes	The Centennial Saloon was built by David Abraham, and completed in August 1875. William Milby's property is described in Grant County's first Deed Book. One of the marshy springs (the original name of the town was La Cieniga de San Vicente) was on the NW corner of his property. The William Antrims moved to Silver City in 1873. Their simple log cabin stood on the east side of Main Street, just north of Broadway. Mrs. Antrim died from tuberculosis on 16 September 1874 and is buried in the memory Lane Cemetery.
