The Port of Everett plans to dedicate its historical interpretative displays that line the waterfront’s four miles of trails at a ceremony from 10 a.m. to noon Tuesday at the port’s Waterfront Center at 1205 Craftsman Way, Everett.
The public is invited to the ceremony.
The exhibits, installed in February, explore Everett’s history of lumber and shingle, commercial fishing and boat building industries on the waterfront.
The interpretive program is intended to bring local residents and tourists down to the waterfront to learn about the history of the site, while also providing an ongoing educational element.
The port worked with Historic Everett, Washington Trust for Historic Preservation and the Washington State Historic Preservation Office.
The exhibits were designed by Dykeman Architects in partnership with EDX Exhibits, and fabricated and installed by Tacoma-based sign company YESCO Sign Company.
The project cost $400,000.
