This bank vault is the only landmark still standing on the old Milner townsite. Between 1903 and 1907, the town was developed to provide services, accommodations, and entertainment for the construction crews of the Milner Dam, and the Twin Falls and Northside Land and Water Company. The population was nearly 5,000, mainly living in tents. The townsite was demolished as the construction projects ceased. The last permanent structures burned in 1950.
October October 2012
This photo is said to have been taken by an unknown photographer in 1903. Milner predates the official founding of Twin Falls by one year. The Perrine and Burton general store was owned by brothers Silas and William B. Perrine, and their cousins, Silas and William Burton. Photo courtesy of Lloyd Libert.
