Why this spot
1903-1919 liquor and rail boomtown
Town founded in 1903 on the Missouri River and Great Northern line to sell liquor to dry North Dakota, with at least seven saloons, a bank, two hotels, three stores and grain elevators. Prohibition ended its trade, the bank closed in 1925 and a 1928 fire burned most of what was left.View source →
