From 1889 to 1890, Fairhaven was
the coming place, with adventurers and investors arriving
by the boatload. Fairhaven was in the running to be the
new major railroad terminus, over 35 hotels and boarding
houses were built during that year alone, and
still the
town overflowed. The Waldron Building was built during
this boom in 1891. The bank of Fairhaven, a stationery
store and real estate offices were among it's first occupants.
Fortunately for us today, the Fairhaven terminus never
materialized, and a peaceful historic district full of
charm and bay views remains for our enjoyment. |

This grand historic building
still makes a commanding statement when entering the heart
of Fairhaven. |
