Radio Street - "The Voice of Longview"


Radio Street is located in south Longview and crosses High Street on the west end and Green Street on the east end.  Longview's very first radio station was located on the corner of Radio and Green Streets in what is now a residential house (it's the same structure!).  What radio station was it?  None other than KFRO, the voice of Longview!

Hilton Hotel

  Longview's downtown hotel was a Hilton from 1936 - 1947.  And no, it was not the second hotel in Conrad Hilton's hotel chain.  That is a legend in Longview's history and I am working on preparing a blog to explain how that legend started.
