Crews continue to work at Seafarers’ Memorial Park on Fidalgo Bay. This Port of Anacortes facility is located on the site of the former Scott Paper Mill. The site has undergone an environmental cleanup and is now being prepared for a spring re-opening.
Back to bay
After many months of being buttoned up on an “R” Avenue lot, the Port’s Seafarers’ Memorial Park building was returned to the Fidalgo Bay shoreline early Thursday morning. The building, moved temporarily during an environmental cleanup of the former Scott mill site, was moved a bit further south. It is estimated the building will be […]

Beach bummin’
Midday Monday was a busy time at Seafarers Memorial Park on Fidalgo Bay. One picnic table was populated by a crew from a nearby work site, and this gentleman found a spot on the rocky beach for his chair and a place in the sun. Boating activity was heavy, and by late afternoon young people […]
