Parsonage circa 1930

Posted on March 20, 2013 by whclarc

Before the Parsonage was moved to our site, it stood approximately where the William G. Paulus Administrative building for the Salem-Keizer School District stands today on Ferry Street (The original address(es) was/were 1325/1327 Ferry St). This is what it looked like around 1930. Part of the new exhibits that will open up in the Parsonage May 11, 2013, will look at what it might have been like for the tenants of the Parsonage when it was an apartment building during the Great Depression.
