When Dirty Dan Harris founded Fairhaven in 1883 he named this area Fair Haven from the native “see-see-lich-em”, meaning “safe port” or “quiet place”. Since the 1890s Fairhaven has experienced booms and busts. Hundred-year-old buildings have been joined by modern structures, housing condos, offices, artist studios, shops, hotels and restaurants. The diversity and individuality that forged the area 130 years ago lives on.
The Fairhaven Association, works tirelessly to celebrate this little village nestled between the Bay and the Cascades. To celebrate the diversity and individuality, the quirks, and the history of Fairhaven.
