7. Aerial View - 1924
As continual dredging of the creek became cost-prohibitive, the port was moved closer to deep water in the 1920's. This aerial photograph of the "new" port was taken in 1924, just after the Pacific-Portland Cement plant began its operations. The Alaska Codfish Company was located to the east, with a large pier that could accommodate codfish-filled schooners that sailed in from Alaska.
