Description

Broadway, Aberdeen. Current (2007) site of Windermere Realty. Image includes Wellington's Bakery and Coffee Shop.  
Thanks to Terri Middleton, who notes: "Broadway, one of Aberdeen's widest streets, was built specifically to ferry workers to the Weatherwax lumber mill at the foot of the street on the Chehalis River and back home again.  Market Street, Aberdeen's other wide street, was built for the same reason but for American Mill further up the river.  Both mills were in operation in the late 1880's when most of the area was still covered in timber and Aberdeen's population was fewer than 1500."
