Upon leaving Bisbee, AZ this weekend, we found ourselves driving into what is left of Lowell. Just this one street took us back in time. "Lowell was at one time a sizable mining town located just to the southeast of Old Bisbee. The majority of the original townsite was consumed by the excavation of the Lavender Pit mine during the 1950s. All that is left today is a small portion of Erie Street, along with Evergreen Cemetery, Saginaw subdivision and Lowell Middle School."
Great set, Dennis. Nicely photographed! Nice that it's being maintained, must be a destination itself.

Dennis, fantastic set of history. Never seen this town before and the "Pickers" may not have been there.
