Abstract

"The original plat of North Yakima's townsite looked fine on paper, but like moving into a new home, it took time to straighten around. The streets wandered, taking short cuts where wagons and riders crossed unoccupied lots. They splashed mud when it thawed or rained, and rolled in shoe-tongue deep summer dust. The depot (a box car) squatted squarely in the middle of Yakima Avenue and West Yakima Avenue was a sagebrush overgrown trail."
