Looks like it is currently under construction or deconstruction.

Not the original site but a reproduction. For some reason the gates are locked on weekends and on weekdays after 5; what are they guarding against? It’s a helpful and welcome piece of Helena history but could use some embellishment such as a few more signs … and open doors.
