Title
English: Panorama of Gold Bar, Washington, 1907
Description
English: Gold Bar, Washington, on the Skykomish River, was named by two optimistic prospectors. It started as a mining town, and in the 1890s became a logging town and railroad construction camp for the Great Northern Railway. When anti-Chinese sentiment built up in the early 1890s, a local railroad construction engineer saved the lives of Chinese railroad workers by shipping them to safety inside wooden coffins.

This panoramic photo shows Gold Bar in 1907. From left to right, the buildings include a hardware store, the Hotel Craft, a drugstore, Miller's Hardware, the Gold Bar Mercantile, the Commercial Hotel and the railroad depot.
