    I was born in Park City in 1953 in the Ghost Town era when the population was around 1200 and diminishing. Skiing certainly saved the town from more decline. Nice brief summary of the history. It was and is a wonderful place to visit and live. Thanks

    Thank you for this informative video. My husband and I work seasonally at National Parks and resorts across the US. We're working in Park City in the Canyons area. Loved learning more about the history of this quirky yet exclusive town.

    Nice little tour. My wife and I have a place there and travel there all the time. Some of the history you mentioned I didn't know. 3.2 beer was all you could buy at grocery stores until about a year ago. Now you can buy regular beer at Smith's.

    This is my neck of the woods. I live in Coalville which is a small town just east of Park City. Coalville doesn't have much so we do our shopping, eating at restaurants, and entertainment in Park City. It's a great place to live except it can get pretty crowded during ski season and especially during The Sundance Film Festival. Where I want to go is your neck of the woods. I hope to visit NYC real soon!

    Bit of a correction: wine and liquor (and "strong beer") is sold at the state liquor stores, regular beer is available anywhere -- convenience stores, grocery stores -- seven days a week.

    After the Dirken house you skipped over 186 main (the now teal colored house with the purple door) I used to get my weed there. Back in 83' from the local dealer. I grew up just at the top of the stairs to the left at 145 park ave.

    Fun video. Park City is fast becoming a destination for Arts, Performing Arts, and music as a result of the Ski and The Sundance Film Festival. The bad thing is the expensive hotel cost if you lookup the high hotels like the Montage, Marriot Autograph collections, Waldorf Astoria, St. Regis, and Deer Valley and more can run into the thousands per night-- yeah not hundreds :-), but you can find affordable if you look hard enough.
    I was surprised to see your video pop- up my home town of Salt Lake City. I watch for you in NYC or Miami areas
    You should do “Speakeasy’s in the NYC, and Chicago or other popular places with speak easy’s

    The stairs off the main street, that take pedestrians up to another level of the town, are quite interesting. I think they have a bunch of those in St. John, Nova Scotia too. Makes you wanna explore more, doesn't it?

    One of the best things to come out of the 2002 Olympics were inverted Aerials in the Moguls competition thanks to Johnny Mosley and his dinner roll. If you search it up in TH-cam you can see how groundbreaking he was. Stirred up quite a bit of controversy with the ioc judges

    Park City was nearly a ghost town in 1978 when I moved to Utah. I did some handyman work for a woman who bought numerous properties on and near Main St. (nearly every building on Main was empty and boarded up - so she paid bottom dollar) Everyone thought she was crazy to buy all those buildings. Crazy like a fox.

    Hey, you're in my neck of the woods! I grew up and live in SLC. My dad was an engineer for the phone company (remember those?) for decades and Park City was his beat -- all the old phone lines up there were designed and laid out by him and his team. (My best friend lives up there, too, and another friend works up there at High West Distillery.) He's got Alzheimer's nowadays and I'm a caretaker for he and my mom. Your videos got me through a lot of stressful days this past summer, so thank you, Thank You, THANK YOU!!
    p.s. I've seriously been considering ripping off your idea, starting a channel called "mikepslc," and going around Utah to all of our beautiful National Parks and whatnot. I'll send you some royalties . . . [Tom's winky face and sound effect]
