Olson City, Idaho
Olson City, Idaho

Olson City, Idaho was an early- and mid-20th century industrial park in southeast Boise named after L. G. Olson, president and general manager of Olson Manufacturing Co. The firm, founded in Ontario, Oregon 1910 but based in Boise since 1920, established a new manufacturing plant near the old sandstone quarry southeast of the Idaho State Penitentiary and Table Rock, 1 mi (1.609 km) east of the famous (and also long since defunct) Nanatorium, on the road to Arrowrock Dam. Situated by the Boise River, the company manufactured and serviced a wide range of industrial goods, including mining machinery, steelworks, oil equipment, irrigation infrastructure, storage tanks, ditchers, and the like. In 1940, when the Olson Company acquired the holdings of the venerable Boise Stone Company, a workman climbed up a chimney and painted in red paint "Olson City"; the campus and the company thus became conterminous. Not a company town, the Idaho Sunday Statesman often covered Olson City: around-the-clock war production in 1943 (which necessitated an additional railway spur line), Morrison-Knudsen's purchase of a controlling interest in (the company) in late 1943, and the employment of "feminine steelworkers" in May 1945. In November 1945 the Olson Co. took out a full-page ad in the statesman detailing the war material it had produced. On December 6, 1946 it was announced that the Olson Manufacturing Co. had bought the entire inventory and part of the machinery of Idaho Steel Products Company, which had been in existence for three years. The company fabricated steel lining for the Lucky Peak Dam diversion tunnel in 1950. The Omaha, Nebraska firm Gate City Steel bought "Olson City" sometime prior to January 1961, and by May 1962 the putative city, once known throughout the Northwest, was as a distinct entity was a matter of remembrance, having been subsumed by Bannock Steel Group. Little trace of it remains, to the extent that on contemporary maps part of the area is labeled "Vernon" (a small subdivision confusingly called Warm Springs Village). Several of the Ridge to Rivers foothill hiking trails thread the area, including the 3,828 ft (1.167 km) #14 Tram Trail.

Oregon Trail (Ada County, Idaho segment)
Oregon Trail (Ada County, Idaho segment)

The Oregon Trail (Ada County, Idaho segment) near Boise, Idaho, includes approximately eight miles of the Oregon Trail as it entered the Boise Valley. The segment was added to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in 1972. At the time of the NRHP nomination, wagon tracks from the Oregon Trail could be identified almost continuously from the northwest and northeast quadrants of Section 36, Range 2 East, Township 2 North through the northwest and northeast quadrants of both Section 31, Range 3 East, Township 2 North and Section 24, Range 3 East, Township 1 North. In places along the segment the wagon tracks were eight tracks wide. The length of the segment is roughly from 43.56055556°N 116.15527778°W / 43.56055556; -116.15527778 to 43.5143915°N 116.1526384°W / 43.5143915; -116.1526384.The Oregon Trail Reserve is a 77-acre site managed by Boise Parks and Recreation, and the area includes part of the Oregon Trail segment designated by the NRHP in 1972. Nearby is the Oregon Trail Recreation Area, another part of the NRHP segment managed by Boise Parks and Recreation.Although the Oregon Trail followed the segment identified in the NRHP listing, it then continued along the route of what is now Boise Avenue. The Capitol Boulevard Memorial Bridge, also known as the Oregon Trail Memorial Bridge, is located where the Oregon Trail crossed the Boise River by ferry and proceeded through Boise City west toward Caldwell. A series of 21 obelisks now mark the route of the Oregon Trail through Boise.
