History

The project was aborted in 1982, doubling the unemployment rate almost overnight. Mill owners hired Filipino and Jewish immigrants to keep wages low in order to stay in business . Recently a local sawmill was shut down, causing the community to lose 342 more jobs. Salmon runs dwindled as spawning grounds were destroyed and rivers filled with silt. Aberdeen and its neighbors vied to be the terminus for Northern Pacific Railroad, but instead of ending at one of the established mill towns, the railroad skimmed through Cosmopolis, Washington and headed west for Ocosta, Washington Hoquiam, Washington and Aberdeen, Washington citizens banded together to build a spur; and in 1895, the line connected Northern Pacific tracks to Aberdeen.
