The souls of High Point Mill Company workers seem to gaze approvingly over
the shoulder of artist Larry Kangas as he puts some finishing touches on
"The Mill Street Logging Scene," a mural of turn-of-the-century
Issaquah. The mural includes a High Point Mill Company Climax 40-ton engine from
1918-28; an Issaquah Lumber Company mill from 1936; and the Issaquah Mill
Company steam donkey from 1903. The mural, sponsored by the Arts Commission,
Greater Issaquah Chamber of Commerce, Downtown Issaquah Plaza, Historical
Society, Main Street Issaquah, Front Street Market and the Ben Franklin store,
was dedicated Thursday on the north wall of the Front Street Market building on
East Sunset Way.
