Harlowton Photographs

Harlowton has no shortage of abandoned buildings in the downtown area (although according to an email I received, this may have changed since this guide was prepared in 2003).

The boom years for Harlowton and the rest of the small towns in the plains of Montana was during the 1920's. Since then, most of the towns in eastern and central Montana have lost population and their economic base due to the consolidation of the agricultural industry. This building was called the State Theatre, which recently burned according to an email I received by a resident of Harlowton.
