Driving On WA SR-14 West In 1984 (Vancouver)

Back in 1984, The Washington State Department of Transportation drove West on SR-14 and recorded video to document the highway. This was part of a project that photographed/videotaped the states highways every couple of years. This video now resides at The Washington State Archives who were kind enough to share it.

    Amazing. I was born here in '97 so aside from downtown (of course, the Lucky Lager brewery was gone before I was born) I hardly recognize anything east of there. Some interesting things to note: I can just smell the view coming into Camas.😉🤢 The paper mill was in full operation then. (Crown Zellerbach until 1986) The whole highway through Camas was redone as a true freeway with interchanges about ten years ago. Washougal now has a pair of roundabouts. No 192nd Ave interchange until much later in the future. The bus station at 164th hasn't been built yet. Interesting how you could pull off the highway at a couple of spots to access Cascade Park. Not many houses along Evergreen Highway. The old stone tunnel under the RR tracks is now an on ramp only to 14. Access to Blandford Drive is no longer possible. That shoofly section is certainly bizarre. Traffic signals at Grand and Columbia Way no longer exist. Now, it's an overpass. No Land Bridge yet. Still more than twenty years away.

    I moved here at 16yo in 1987. I can see the spot of Hwy14 where I rolled my car. It's all reshaped, contoured and paved over now. All those little driveways and intersections that don't exist any more. There were about 180K people in the county then. 500K now.
