1. Trigg House
July 1999 Photo by David Bangs
This 1909 house was the real start of Gilman Village. Built by Alfred Morris
and Jack Trigg, it has been moved twice. The home first stood where the Darigold
plant is now located. It was moved in 1932 by the owner, Louis Krall, to allow
for the expansion of the old creamery building to include a feed co-operative.
But commercial development of the area encroached on the Trigg House once
more in 1972 when Safeway Inc. purchased the land (on Front Street across from
the Darigold creamery) for a supermarket. In January,
1973, the house was moved to its present location along with the smoke house
built by Mr. Krall.
In 1974 the roof of the house was raised to provide a second floor for
business space.
