History

Paul's Episcopal Church (Port Townsend, Washington) Paul's Episcopal Church. Enoch S. Without the railroad to spur economic growth, the town shrank and investors looked elsewhere to make a good return. When the depression hit, those plans lost the capital to continue and rail lines ended on the east side of Puget Sound, mainly in Tumwater, Washington Tacoma, Washington and Seattle, Washington With the other Puget Sound ports growing in size, Port Townsend saw a rapid decline in population when the Northern Pacific Railroad failed to connect the city to the eastern Puget Sound city of Tacoma. During this period, in 1888, the Port Townsend Police Department was established.
