The Goldfield Consolidated Mines Co. building, built in 1907. A gorgeous building, in surprisingly good shape, with a nefarious background. Goldfield Consolidates Mines was (obviously) a company that consolidated most of the mines in the area into one company. Per the Waymarking link Goldfield Consolidated is famous for having ended union activities in the mines in Goldfield, in 1908. Per the Wikipedia link, the end of unionizing in Goldfield was accomplished with the help President Theodore Roosevelt who sent federal troops to Goldfield at the request of the Nevada governor; with the arrival of the troops, the mine owners reduced wages and announced that union members would no longer be employed in the mines.
