Aileen Kelly and Friends - Longview, WA public library - 1934

Longview, WA, was a "planned city" much like Paris - the inspiration of Robert A. Long (town founder). In the center of town is the Civic Circle, Monticello Hotel and the public library.  Memories like this are fun to share as they speak to our company's rich history and the town of Longview.
