Never to be forgotten in Greenwood BC
Posted by Jewel Creek on
8.5 km east of Greenwood BC, across from the Phoenix open pit mine that was closed again in 1976, now a ghost town, stands a WW1 monument, a Cenotaph, which is a Greek word for empty tomb, one of the only remaining structures left from what once was a booming mining town that had been incorporated in 1898.
