We saw this building in a 1917 view last month; here is how it looked 36 years later. Another 58 years have passed since this photo and freight trains no longer rumble down the center of the street. This looks northeast at NW 12th and Davis. The small white building on the next block was just demolished a couple of months ago.

Nabisco moved to a new plant at N. Vancouver and N. Columbia in the 50′s. The aromas from there mixed with the paper plant from Camas, WA was overwhelming. I lived less than a mile from Nabisco.
