AREA HISTORY Riverside, Washington’s history dates back to the late 19th century when it was first settled in the 1880s. Originally known as “Indian Village” due to the presence of Native American communities in the area, the town later adopted the name Riverside. The town’s development was closely tied to the construction of the Great Northern Railway in the early 20th century, which facilitated transportation and contributed to the town’s growth. Riverside became a hub for agricultural activities, with farming and logging playing key roles in its economy. Great Nort hern Railway circa 1918
