Port of Anacortes cleanup: 2007


Recent history at the 99-year-old Port of Anacortes includes major environmental cleanup projects. One such project was “Focus Fidalgo, a Puget Sound Initiative.” This project involved in part the removal of soils contaminated by leaking fuel tanks. Demolished as part of the process was the building that housed Cap Sante Marine. Restored waterfront properties allowed new construction including Anthony’s Restaurant. Photos: October 2007

About Photographer 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.
