My town has seen some rapid changes these last few months. Several major projects are in process, both public and private. These are bringing much needed growth to the area.
Costco’s long delayed new store on the old Lynnwood high school site finally launched; moving really fast. I’m glad the City is being thoughtful with the road structure around the area. Adding much more capacity to the area is quite critical, as traffic volumes are going to go nuts when Costco comes online.
Another significant spot of change is off of 196th & 36th. The aging and dilapidated Alderwood Manor Hardware Store building was finally razed. And just a few feet away, a multi-story apartment building or condo tower will be built. That will significantly impact traffic in that area, already a heavily traveled spot. But the City already had improvements in process.
These are just a few highlights. There’s a CVS pharmacy in the works for 196th near 99, the long-overdue traffic revision by the Post Office on 208th, and more. Lynnwood is coming alive economically. It’s amazing and delightful to watch.
