Port Angeles Underground Heritage Tour

Port Angeles is a city steeped in history as a logging center of the Olympic Peninsula. The whole downtown area was raised in the early 1900s and many older buildings were lost until the remains were recently discovered and are undergoing a remarkable renovation. This underground area provides an insight into the past living conditions and that includes the discovery of one of the brothels and a link to a darker side of Port Angeles. 

Heritage Tours, First Federal Savings & Loan and the Port Angeles Chamber of Commerce will present the annual Heritage Weekend, Saturday and Sunday, August 9, 10, 2008.
