Here's a visit I made near the beginning of 2013. This post covers arrival on a Sound Transit bus and walking along Broadway, a main street running north and south parallel to downtown, residential and the medical center.

Thanks for the tour. Nice views of Everett.

But there´s something I´ve missed: Some pictures about Boeing´s factories.

I´ve always known about Everett thanks to Boeing, since I was a kid. Although I´ve never been there, I´d enjoy visiting Everett, sure.

Congrats and greetings from Madrid, Spain.

[mSeattle]

Danny, you're right. I was going to make another thread, but I'll tack these on here. All but the first photo were taken in autumn 2013.

For Danny. I remembered that I have this one blury snap shot.

A bit more rough and "inland West", if that makes any sense, than I'd envisioned in my mind. At least, that is compared to Seattle.

[Wolkenkratzerliebhab]

Nice, thanks!

[mhays]

Everett is very blue collar. And it was the one big winner in the 1980s/1990s US Navy "Home Port" program, which attempted to add more bases in a lot of locations. It generally has a carrier battle fleet with all of the offshoots that entails. Add that to Boeing (wild guess 20-30,000 jobs onsite, as the largest local plant?) and an older timber economy....

[kcexpress69]

Nice thread!! Thanks for the tour!!

[Danny]

Thanks for this update, mSeattle.

I love the scenery around Everett. Many houses are really pretty. And the snowed mountains in the background are beautiful. Everett looks a very interesting and nice place to visit.

By the way, thanks for the photo of Boeing.

Congrats and greetings from Madrid, Spain.

[ColDayMan]

Thank you for that!

[LSyd]

funky. now i understand why a buddy in Portland who'd been to Everett for work said i should check it out.

-

[OhioGuy]

Interesting to see. Thanks for posting these!

[Ex-Ithacan]

Now that is an extensive/comprehensive tour. Only drove through once many years ago, but the city had a blue collar vibe about it. I didn't realize there was a US Navy base. Thanks for the pics.

[dc_denizen]

There is some subtle difference between Oregon and Washington towns...can't really put my finger on it.

anyhow great pics!

[mSeattle]

Thanks you all for the comments and thoughts. Denizen, that's an interesting thought. I need to look more closely at pictures from Oregon towns, even better, I should visit some.

[pdxtex]

apparently the everett boeing plant is the largest building in the world by volume. also, i hope tim's bicycle venture is more successful then his hobby venture. keeping it skeezy on the north side!
