In the beginning, Park City was a rough and tumble silver mining boom town.
The mines came and went but a raucous bunch of folks stayed on to ski and carouse.
From those rowdy beginnings sprang bodacious boutiques and artsy stuff. Seriously good restaurants and a string of spirited watering holes.
Come to think of it, Historic Park City today is still a lot like it was back in the 1890’s – only now with cushier lodgings and much better coffee.

About Historic Mainstreet

Historic Park City is the gem among riches.   Nestled in the valley flanked by Park City Mountain Resort on one side, and Deer Valley on the other, it is the heart and soul of our mountain town and the epicenter of all that is fun and wild.  Since silver was discovered in the hills, there have been booms, busts, fires, and freezes, but the town’s adventurous spirit has never dimmed. 

At the center of Historic Park City is Main Street--home to over 200 unique businesses and the trailhead to your mountain town adventure.   Visitors can shop among over 100 independent boutiques, dine at 50 one-of-a-kind restaurants, relax at a restorative spa, ride the town lift to play in the mountains, stay in style within a short walk of everything, revel in our spirited nightlife, discover something to treasure from our lively art community, connect with someone who can help you start a life in Park City, or meet within the heart of a mountain town.   In today’s Historic Park City the riches lie above ground and the prospects are looking good.
