Huntington is a city in Baker County, on the eastern border of Oregon, United States.

In 1870, Miller's Stagecoach Station was established[citation needed] before the coming of the Oregon Railway and Navigation Company rail line in 1884, and was platted in 1885 or 1886.

Shortly after Fifer arrived, the Huntingtons closed up, leaving him alone in the general merchandise business.

[citation needed] The Oregon Construction Company followed soon, with a stock of general merchandise, a blacksmith shop, the Pacific Hotel, several boarding houses and restaurants and a number of saloons.

In 1898, the Northwest Railroad Company began extending a short line down the Snake River.

This increased transportation at Huntington and gave an outlet for Eagle and Pine Valley fruits, cattle, lumber and ore.

[citation needed] Huntington became the only incorporated city in Baker County on the Oregon Trail in 1891 with Home Rule Law.

[9] Remnants of the Old Oregon Trail can still be seen today when one is traveling north from Farewell Bend State Recreation Area toward the town of Huntington on U.S. Route 30.

[9] Evidence of the hardships and tragedies of the pioneer movement still exists: a small iron cross, visible from Route 30, marks the location where Snake River Shoshone Indians killed a number of emigrants in 1860.

[9] At the end of the 19th century, Huntington developed a reputation as "Sin City", a rugged frontier town having its share of saloons, Chinese opium dens, and gunslingers.

[11] According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 0.75 square miles (1.94 km2), all of it land.

[15] The portion of the county where Huntington is located is in the Treasure Valley Community College district.
