A power player in the community.
The Snoqualmie Falls Lumber Company began construction in 1916 to build the “largest and most modern lumber manufacturing units on the Pacific coast,” as every operation was driven by electricity rather than by steam. Snoqualmie Mill became the second all-electric mill in the country, built just upriver from the second hydroelectric dam in the country. In addition to power needed for production of the mill, it also produced “home” electricity for the lights and appliances of the new and growing town of Snoqualmie Falls (250 homes recorded by 1924).
