Discover Nampa

Nampa began in the early 1880s, when the Oregon Short Line Railroad built its line from Granger, Wyoming, to Huntington, Oregon, through the site. More lines followed, making Nampa an important railroad town, and because the Oregon Short Line at first bypassed Boise, Nampa received the finest of the area's many depots, now a history museum. Alexander and Hannah Duffes established one of the first homesteads and, with their friend James McGee, formed the Nampa Land and Improvement Company. Many early settlers called the town New Jerusalem because of its residents' strong religious focus. In a single year it grew from 15 homes to 50, and it was incorporated in 1891.

Downtown's street grid runs parallel to the tracks, northwest to southeast. Duffes laid it out that way on purpose, after a woman and her two children were killed by a train in a town he had platted near Toronto when their buggy wheel stuck as they crossed the tracks. In 1889 Nampa drew attention for the purported discovery of an ancient artifact known as the Nampa figurine, described that year by George Frederick Wright for the Boston Society of Natural History. The first elementary school, Lakeview School, was built in the 1890s on a hill overlooking Lake Ethel, an irrigation reservoir long used for community picnics. After its centennial the building was condemned as a school and sold to the First Mennonite Church, and since its refurbishment in 2008 it has housed the Idaho Arts Charter School.
