Historic 'C' Street - Virginia City, Nevada
Balconies & Overhangs
 

      
 On 'C'
      Street, a colorful mix of masonry and wood-frame buildings line
      the street. Buildings on the downhill side (above) are often
      built on stilts or with lower floors to compensate for the steep
      slopes behind. Virtually every structure is built with an overhang
      (above, at the Silver Queen) or functioning balcony (below) providing
      almost continuous cover for the street's sidewalks. On-street
      parking is allowed on both sides of 'C' Street for most of its
      length.
