Bordeaux, WA

A post office called Bordeaux was established in 1903, and remained in operation until 1942. The community was named after Thomas Bordeaux, a businessman in the lumber industry. At the town's peak, the population reached approximately 400 people and contained a hotel, several mills and facilities for timber processing, and company housing.

Lumber operations ended in the 1940s once the timber had been extracted, and the town's population dwindled. When the town's sawmill shut down in the mid-20th century, its last remaining inhabitants abandoned it.
