Queen of Comstock Lode Continues to Fall Apart
Virginia City faces ongoing decline as the Queen of the Comstock Lode receives a modest $15,000 from the Nevada Legislature to patch up landmarks. The council cites aging buildings, past grand plans, and rising neglect since the 19th century boom, with private restorations sparse and the town clinging to history. The Territorial Enterprise and a small population persist amid a once bustling mining boom.
