Building materials are lowered to the roof of the Aberdeen Packing Company building, left, in Ilwaco earlier this spring. After a coronavirus-mandated
hiatus, renovations recently resumed on iconic structure’s roof. Known to many older peninsula residents as the Doupe building, for the family that long
operated a general merchandise store there in the mid-20th century, it is being converted into apartments.

After sitting vacant and deteriorating for a decade after the death of
its former owner, the former headquarters of the Aberdeen Packing
Company on the main intersection in Ilwaco is undergoing substantial
renovations.
A workman guides a load of materials onto the roof of an iconic, long-
neglected building in Ilwaco. Construction has resumed thanks to a slight
relaxation in covid-19 rules.
