Historic Hood River
12th Street

Notes
This is a view of the construction of the fill for Twelfth Street where it crosses Indian Creek in the Heights. You can see the back of the bleachers at the ball field on the corner of 12th and Belmont, as well as the Hubbard Taylor Feed Store on the other side of Belmont. The foreground is a winch to help with the project. I don’t see a boiler, so perhaps it is has powered.
I put this circa 1920. We saw another view of this project here.

L.E.
It is now comical to read through all the guesses in the previous photo.
I still wonder what the original road out to Idlewilde looked like.
