Butte Morning
I have here some more images taken in the historical section of downtown Butte, Montana. Specifically, I'm not far from the Hotel Finlen. The town is very attractive for photographers such as myself: lots of old buildings, neon signs, and ghost adverts on old brick walls.

Butte Evening
Once again I have here some more images taken in the historical section of downtown Butte, Montana. I start off with another shot of the Dumas Brothel, located on Mercury Street, with the Hotel Finlen sign lit up. The two other shots were made on West Broadway Street.

Dumas Brothel
After photographing the dawn, I wandered around Butte's historical district a bit with camera in hand. I stumbled this attractive structure and shot it with the Finlen Hotel in the background.
Upon looking it up, I found out this is the Dumas Brothel, which is (apparently) the longest continuously running house of ill-repute in US history. You can read about the place here; it's located at 45 East Mercury Street in Butte.

An Evening in Butte
In the first image above we see the Hotel Finlen as seen from 83 East Park Street. Next we spy Mark Dotson taking in an NFL game at the Party Palace at 1 West Park Street. Lastly a building at 80 East Park Street with Our Lady of the Rockies in the distance (more on that in subsequent posts).

Hotel Finlen
These two images come from the Robert Frank Room in the Hotel Finlen, Butte, Montana. It's been made over into a shrine of sorts, with a copy of The Americans on the side table there.

Hotel Finlen & Motor Inn
As part of my project on the Great Divide, I had to pause for a couple days inn Butte, Montana (as the continental divide nearly circles it).
The older hotel building of the Finlen was full so I was relegated to the motor inn building which adjoins it (I didn't mind). As for the hotel portion, I'll have something on that in subsequent posts.
