Historic Downtown Snohomish sits on the shores of the Snohomish River and boasts an engaging assortment of charming shops, wineries, and eclectic restaurants. The area is enriched with restored historic buildings and sites, and maintaining that history is paramount to the vision of the Historic Snohomish Downtown Association. The town reflects the strength and perseverance of our forebearers and is the heart of the Snohomish region. Our Riverfront Gazebo is quickly falling apart. With the America's Main Streets contest money, we would restore the structure, make it ADA compliant and welcome our diverse community back for family picnics, outdoor music concerts, lunch dates or just a place to rest and watch the river float by. The Riverfront Gazebo provides a protective overlook to the Snohomish River and still serves as a recognizable landmark and visual link from the riverfront to the town. If Historic Downtown Snohomish was honored to win the America's Main Street contest, the funds would be used to restore the structure and help us start fundraising efforts to landscape the area around the Gazebo. The Gazebo is part of our history and must not be lost. This labor of love demonstrates the passion and commitment of the community. The Gazebo would recapture its significance to the town and would be home to countless other events. It would also be a wonderful spot to bring lunch or a lover and enjoy the river passing by. Please consider us for the America's Main Streets contest and help us bring the Riverfront Gazebo back to life.
