Persistent Work
For generations life in Western Washington and in King County particularly has been defined by what we do where the land meets the water. Seattle’s history was shaped along its waterways. Maritime industries built structures to support boat shops and shipyards, canneries, and manufacturing of nets, sails and rigging.
