Flagstaff—Named After the U.S. Flag

Although many destinations have histories of war, Flagstaff is known to be peaceful. The city got its name back in 1855 when Lieutenant Edward Fitzgerald Beale cut the branches of a Ponderosa Pine tree to fly the United States flag. And so, the name "Flagstaff" was given to a destination that now proposers with vitality. In time, the first permanent settlement was born later in 1876. However, it was not until the 1880s that Flagstaff grew. The city blossomed, opening up its first post office and railroad industry. Still, the growth was so quick that by 1886, Flagstaff became the largest city on the railroad line between Albuquerque and California's west coast. Nothing could stop Flagstaff from becoming the magnificent destination that it is now.
