- Milan, Washington
-
Milan (pronounced /ˈmaɪlɨn/, US dict: mī′·lĭn) is an unincorporated community in Spokane County, Washington, United States. Milan is a rural community located along the Burlington Northern Railroad, east of Deer Park. It is named after the Italian city of Milan.
In 1900 Milan was an important shipping point on the Great Northern Railway. There were two sawmills in the community, and two more within a couple of miles, which supplied lumber to the city of Spokane. James Conalton was Milan's postmaster and storekeeper at the time.[1]
Milan is now referred to simply Chattaroy as is the Community of Riverside.
