Our staff and programs moved to their temporary locations in May and June of 2019. Ground breaking was on July 9, 2019 and demolition. Construction of the new building is expected to take 12 – 14 months to complete.

Together we can

build the future.

It has taken the cooperation and generosity of many in both the private and public sector and the dedication of the Senior Center Board of Directors and staff, and members of the community
to make the building of the Edmonds Waterfront Center
a possibility. The journey continues. Follow our progress.
