Description

Perspective map of the city of Helena, Mont. Capital of State, county seat of Lewis & Clarke Co.

Superior reproduction of this richly detailed panoramic map of Helena, Montana in 1890 (Library of Congress stamp, dated September 11, 1890). Included on this map is an inset depicting the famous Broadwater Hotel and Natatorium, built in 1888-89 by Montana tycoon Charles A. Broadwater. Considering the popularity of Victorian era health spas, Charles Broadwater sought to take advantage of the existing hot springs and created an opulently furnished, world-class hotel and spa. The Moorish architecture and manicured grounds resulted in one of the most beautiful retreats imaginable. The Natatorium boasted the world's largest indoor pool, fed by over one million gallons of hot mountain spring water per day. Electric trolleys ran to and from downtown Helena, bringing patrons back and forth. The untimely death of Charles Broadwater in 1892 led to a steady decline of the hotel, which closed permanently in 1942. This beautiful map provides a look at the beginnings of the city.
