Tacoma is Washington state`s third-largest city, with approximately 199,826 residents. Tacoma became known as the City of Destiny in 1887 after it was designated as the Northern Pacific Railroad`s western terminus in 1873. Scores of immigrants flocked to our city then; and now as the city undergoes a thriving renaissance, we`re seeing another surge of immigration as residents and investors flock to this great destination. Tacoma has again emerged as the urban heart of the South Puget Sound. The City`s website offers a snapshot of this inviting Northwest community, and why more and more people are calling Tacoma their City of Destiny, and most of all, their destination for living, working, playing and staying. The City provides a number of direct services to citizens, from picking up garbage and recycling to aiding low income individuals and senior citizens.

The name “Gowanda” is derived from the Seneca Indian phrase meaning “a valley among the hills” or “under the cliffs,” referring to the village’s location below the Zoar Valley gorge along Cattaraugus Creek. Occupied by various Indian tribes before the American Revolution, the westward movement of our growing nation brought the first settlers here from New England early in the 19th century. What is now Gowanda was settled in 1810 by Turner Aldrich, who bought 707 acres on both sides of the creek from the Holland Land Company. He cleared the land, built a cabin, a sawmill and a gristmill. The settlement was called Aldrich’s Mills until 1823 when the name was changed to Lodi. The village was incorporated as Gowanda in 1848. Ahaz Allen settled next in 1812, erecting a cabin above Aldrich’s in what is now called Hidi. The first white child born here was his daughter, Caroline, in 1813. The next year he dug a race, dammed the creek, and built a sawmill. Allen built the first frame house here in 1815 on what is now Beech Street. It burned and was torn down in 1970. Those who followed these pioneers to this beautiful valley have each left their mark, large or small, in its streets, buildings, factories, businesses and institutions. The history of Gowanda is charted through fire and flood, economic boom or bust, immigration and migration, and the inevitable march of time.
