According to the City of Fruitland, the first stores went up on Pennsylvania Avenue facing the railroad tracks in 1906. By 1909, business had shifted to Southwest 3rd Street and Iowa Avenue. In the peak orchard years, six packinghouses and a cannery ran here. Fruitland became a village in 1948 and annexed Gayway Junction in 1968, on the site of the old dance hall where Centennial Plaza now stands.
The Envision Fruitland 2040 plan shows a town organized around its highways. Retail and services follow US 95 north from the I-84 interchange, and a medical and commercial district sits where US 30 heads west toward the state line.
