    Fargo, NORTH DAKOTA - Island Park - long dresses, hats, fountain - 1908:  Fargo is a city in and the county seat of Cass County, North Dakota, United States. Being the most populous city in the state, it accounts for nearly 17% of the state population.  According to the 2019 United States Census estimates, its population was 124,662, making it the 223rd-most populous city in the United States.  Fargo, along with its twin city of Moorhead, Minnesota, as well as the adjacent cities of West Fargo, North Dakota, and Dilworth, Minnesota, form the core of the Fargo-Moorhead, ND-MN Metropolitan Statistical Area. The MSA had a population of 257,000 in 2020.  Fargo was founded in 1871 on the Red River of the North floodplain. Island Park was part of the original townsite of Fargo platted out by the Northern Pacific Railroad. Jacob Lowell, Jr. and J.B. Power interceded with the railroad and the area that is now Island Park was deeded to the city for a park.  The map on the right is taken from an 1899 Fargo street map. One can see the many paths through the park. On the west (left) side is a lagoon and on the east side are several unidentified structures and a circular wading pool.  The Divided Back Era , mailed in 1908, is in good condition.  Greenwood, Orr & Co.  Fargo, N.D.
