H St. Overlook - Make it Happen!
Help make the H St. Overlook a reality. The southern end of H St is the only remaining publicly owned property from Maritime Heritage Park to the Broadway Overlook where we can see Bellingham Bay. This site is very, very important to the neighborhood and our heritage.
Please contact your City Council at 676-6970 or citycouncil@cob.org. John Watts and Gene Knutson are your reps but the other five are interested in this sort of thing.
Parks Department: Paul Leuthold at 676-6985
Mayor Mark Asmundson at 676-6979 or mayorsoffice@cob.org
Planning Director Tim Stewart at 676-6982 or tstewart@cob.org
Or me, Michael McAuley your MNAC Rep at 201-7199 or mmcgolly@yahoo.com
Also, the adjacent landowner at 1203 W. Holly, Kelly Beerman is very interested in working with the neighborhood to help this happen as he redevelops his property. The Planning Department has his contact info. Give him a call and let him know you support his efforts on the H St.Overlook.

The H St Overlook will be a small plaza with a water fountain (maybe dog water) and hopefully a telescope to look out across the Bay to the South. We need lots of support, supplies, money for materials, and lots of support! Did I say we need lots of support? If we want to hold onto our public spaces we must get your calls and action or this final remaining overlook will be lost. There were more than 300 people on the 4th of July watching the fireworks from this location.....for the first time in decades we have OUR view back, we own it...let's not let it go again! Call, write, e-mail, get involved, Call Mike M at 201-7199.
