What kind of famous town is Deadwood South Dakota?
In the early 50s it was quaint, historical, rustic, nostalgic and charming. Today it has all of the symptoms of being a "Tourist Trap" and exploitive venue that could be OK to pass through and better yet, to drive around. The 1959 and 1987 fires both almost ended the town (and possibly should have). In 1989 gambling became legal, which may have been as bad for the community as being bypassed by Interstate 90 in 1964 and the cracckdown on prostitution in 1980. The historic heart of Deadwood no longer exists and the dead shell that remains iis not worthy of being a National Historic Landmark.
