In 1881, an artist from New York visited Southwest Colorado when he created a print called "The Magic City of the Southwest." To the artist, 'magic' referred to industry, gold, and the illusion of the western frontier. On season 2 of The Magic City, we redefine 'magic'. We tell stories of the past, present, and future of this place.
We'll see you soon for more stories from The Magic City of the Southwest.
