Winooski is a city in Chittenden County, Vermont, located at the mouth of the Winooski River. The word "winooski" comes from the language of the Abenaki tribe, and means "this is where the wild onions grow". Archaeological research reveals that a single family band of Native Americans came to what is now the City of Winooski about 5,000 years ago. In the early 1770's Ira Allen "led a people through a wilderness of 70 miles" to construct a formidable blockhouse on the Winooski (then "Onion") River which served both as a fort and as general store and office for the land-speculating Onion River Company. After the Revolutionary War, Ira Allen returned to build a dam across the Winooski River with a sawmill at each end. The use of the Winooski falls to generate energy had begun; it would continue into the 20th Century with the construction of water-powered mills on both sides of the river. Ira himself built a house on the present site of the Winooski Block around 1785 and enjoyed a garden which was described as "a paradise of fruits and flowers." With an impressive set of waterfalls to inspire the growth of industry, Winooski soon became a center for wool processing.
