Melmont, Washington
Melmont is a ghost town in Pierce County, Washington, USA. The town was founded in 1900 when the Northwest Improvement Company, a subsidiary of Northern Pacific Railway, started the Melmont coal mine. The town consisted of a schoolhouse, a train depot, a saloon, a hotel (which housed the post office, a butcher shop, and store), and rows of cottages that were used as housing for the miners. Each row accommodated a different nationality, the miners being seemingly self-segregated.
Fairfax Bridge (Washington)
The Fairfax Bridge (formerly known as the O'Farrell Bridge) is a steel-lattice three-hinged arch bridge spanning the Carbon River on State Route 165 in Pierce County, Washington. Previous to the construction of the bridge in 1921, the only route south to the area around Fairfax was by train. At a total cost of $80,000, the bridge's deck sits 250 feet above the river, which made it the tallest structure in Washington at the time it was built.
Fairfax, Washington
Fairfax was a coal town in Pierce County (Washington). Mining lasted only until the minerals ceased to be economically viable following World War I. Until the completion of the nearby 240 feet high Farrell Bridge in 1921 (the highest bridge in the state at the time), the town was only accessible via railroad or pack train.
