Glenbrook, Oregon

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Glenbrook was a logging town in Benton County, Oregon, United States. Glenbrook lies on Alpine Road west of Alpine and south of Dawson. It is located at 44°18′49″N 123°24′23″W / 44.31361°N 123.40639°W / 44.31361; -123.40639.

A sawmill operated by the Alsea River Lumber Company was established at Glenbrook in 1919, and a logging railroad into the surrounding forest was constructed at this time.[1] The town itself was built around the sawmill, and was "christened" with a large parade and barbecue in late August 1920.[2] As of 2024, little remains of Glenbrook apart from the mill pond.
