&#13;
Warehouses dominated the Southport shoreline in the 1800s, when Fairfield farmers shipped onions and other goods to New York and beyond. When ships were sighted, farmers in ox carts and wagons would line the streets waiting for a chance to ship their onions, which were packed between layers of salt hay and canvas to prevent freezing. Ships also carried pork, corn, lumber, and tanned leather to coastal markets. &#13;
