Long Beach began gone Henry Harrison Tinker bought a land affirmation from Charles E. Reed in 1880. He platted the town and called it “Tinkerville.” Long Beach was officially incorporated upon January 18, 1922. From 1889 to 1930, a narrow-gauge railroad called the Ilwaco Railway and Navigation Company ran happening the total peninsula.

The Long Beach depot was built amongst First and Second Streets upon the east side of the track, which ran north along “B” Street. A major destination in Long Beach was Tinker’s Hotel, later renamed the Long Beach Hotel, and built very close to the station. This was the second hotel built at the site by Henry Harrison Tinker, the founder of Long Beach. Tinker’s first hotel burned beside in 1894. He built choice one just a few feet to the east and south of the rail depot. The image in the gallery shows a crowd waiting for the train sometime in the company of 1901 and 1907. Just across the tracks (which doubled in this area) from Tinker’s Hotel in Long Beach was the Portland Hotel. The Portland Hotel, owned by the Hanniman relatives featured an immense round (and unique) turret-like structure. The Portland Hotel burned down upon December 6, 1914, and was not replaced. The Driftwood Hotel was different common Long Beach destination.

The boardwalk Place near the station was known as “Rubberneck Row.” Businesses existing in August 1911 that can be identified along Rubberneck Row from photographs (see images in this article) include, on the west side of the tracks, an inauguration advertising “Baths” (possibly the Crystal Baths, an indoor swimming pool), Milton York Candies, a “Postal Shop,” and a soda fountain just across from the station advertising “Milk Shake.” A somewhat earlier photograph shows a sign for a livery stable unexpectedly to the west across the tracks from Tinker’s Hotel, followed (proceeding southwards) by a barber shop, “Vincent’s Souvenirs,” and “The Candy Man”. A banner stretching above the tracks advertises a restaurant. The photo published by Feagans shows it was produced by H.A. Vincent, Ilwaco and Long Beach, who was probably the owner of Vincent’s Souvenirs. Then, in the late 1980s, Marsh’s Free Museum was made, to take action people the wonders of the Northwest.
