This 1946 photo is taken from west to east. Sunnyside (Old Sunnyside) is not visable since it is behind the mountain in the mouth of Sunnyside Canyon.

Smoke emanates from the Sunnyside Coke Ovens near the top of the picture. The easternmost portion of Dragerton, E-section, is just being built, only half filled with houses. Columbia is not included in the photo. Photo donated by Don Butler.

This photo was taken in late 1942 when the townsite was still called Drager. It is the office of W.E. Ryberg Co. - Strong & Grant, the contractors for the Defense Plant Corporation who built the Dragerton houses and other buildings. Building is directly across the road from Menottis Carbon Grocery Co. After the houses were finished, the office building was jacked up and a basement was put underneath. A foyer was added, a steeple in the front and the building became "The Dragerton Community Church."
