Northwestern Improvement Co., Cle Elum

Though not as much of a company town as Roslyn, Cle Elum\u27s business district was dominated by the massive NWI Co. store at First Street and Pennsylvania Avenue. The roofline of the long-gone building is still visible on the wall of the surviving building to the left.
