For
the past four years Edmonds has been voted “Western Washington’s Most
Friendly Town” by a poll of over 700,000 viewers of KING-5 TV’s Evening
Magazine program. Fantastic flowers line the streets and fragrant
hanging baskets have become a hallmark of this charming, artistic town.
Each June, the Edmonds Arts Festival is celebrated. This event is one of
the oldest, largest, and most successful juried arts festivals in the
state, and in July and August the Edmonds Art Commission sponsors
concerts in the park, and a special series of performances just for
children. In many ways Edmonds has retained the character of the early
part of the century, but continued to grow into a highly desirable place
to live and visit. On the waterfront, the shingle mills which boomed at
the turn of the century have given way to a scenic jetty and waterfront
parks. Where coastal steamers once took on their cargoes of freshly-cut
timber, Edmonds’ beaches are now designated marine sanctuaries and
divers from all over the nation come to explore the underwater park at
Brackett’s Landing. Today’s waterfront includes three beautiful
beachfront parks, a popular 900-foot fishing pier and several
spectacular waterfront restaurants, cafes, art galleries, and antique
shops to explore. For more information on Edmonds’ colorful past, visit
the Edmonds-South Snohomish County Historical Museum located in the
beautifully preserved Carnegie Library building which was built in 1910
in downtown Edmonds. Click here to search for properties in Edmonds.
