Folsom has been growing ever since the first prospectors sought their fortune in the nearby Sierra Nevada foothills when the town was called Granite City. The Pony Express stopped here, followed by rail and electricity. This history is alive in the antique shops, art galleries, and restaurants of the historic district of Sutter Street and chronicled in its new library open seven days a week.
