Future view
Published May 3, 2007 / by Steve Berentson
Actually, the view’s there now, but it will be awhile before this new residential development is ready for occupants. The site is located at the end of 17th Street above Oakes Avenue, with a sweeping view of the Guemes Channel and neighboring islands. The blue building in the center on water’s edge is located at Lovric’s.
About Steve Berentson
A fourth generation Skagit County native who was moved kicking and screaming from this island community in 1960. I finally reclaimed an Anacortes address in 1980, and I have been in constant celebration of my return since that time. Many of us who call Anacortes home love Fidalgo Island for its natural assets: among them are rugged beaches, pristine lakes, thousands of acres of forestland and some awesome views of the Skagit Valley and surrounding islands. Another element of my love affair with this community is its people, both natives and immigrants. They will “star” in many of my journal entries.
