Launching Everett's Waterfront

Everett, Washington is in the process of constructing one of the nicest new waterfront communities on the West coast.

Plans for the 65 acre village includes over 600 housing units- the first of which will be ready for occupancy by 2008, a second marina, retail shops, a craftsman district and various public access plans (including a potential for a pedestrian walkway from Grand Avenue Park to the waterfront).

Contacts for those interested in residential or retail space can be found at Port Gardner Wharf.

This is what the Project Overview has to say about the development -

"On the shores of Puget Sound, between Seattle and Vancouver, a new marina community is coming to life. Along with the 2,300+ slips and marina there will be an extraordinary mix of homes, unique shops, restaurants, open-air markets, 18 acres of parks and open spaces, business offices, overnight lodging, and other first-class amenities and services."

And about Everett, Washington -

Port Gardner Wharf is located in Everett, Washington, the county seat of Snohomish County. Located approximately 30 minutes north of Seattle, Everett is within easy distance of the San Juan Islands, the Cascade and Olympic Mountains and the bucolic landscape of the Skagit Valley. Home to an international aerospace community anchored by Boeing, Everett is experiencing a renaissance as a cultural and recreational destination. Considered an emerging arts district, it is also the center of entertainment and sporting events for the area north of Seattle.
