Synopsis

In 1893, Diamond Point became an official U.S. Quarantine Station of the United States Government. Outbreaks of yellow fever prompted the government to create quarantine stations at ports of entry. By 1933, Diamond Point Quarantine Station was declared unsuitable and a new station was built at Point Hudson in Port Townsend, Washington.
