Weyerhauser, the big employer closed down their plant because they ran out of wood they could process. Once the good paying jobs left, the money in the city dried up. Then you get the inevitable business closures, houses up for sale and lack of investment into development. One more thing that really helped destroy the city...it has six urban native reserves...and a jail. I drove through P.A. about five years ago...and saw the boarded up windows and empty storefronts... and bums hanging around ...very sad for what once was a beautiful little city on a hill with a river running through it in the valley where all the downtown malls are.
