Historic Snoqualmie Home of Two Former Mayors Designated Local Landmark
In late April 2025, the Snoqualmie Landmarks Commission unanimously designated the home of two former mayors as a local landmark. Known as "the mayors' house," this residence is recognized for its cultural significance within the community. The commission's decision underscores Snoqualmie's commitment to preserving its rich history and architectural heritage. By designating the home as a landmark, the city aims to protect it from potential alterations that may compromise its historical value. Local officials assert that this recognition will foster community pride and encourage residents to engage with their history.
The landmark status not only preserves the building but also serves as a teaching tool for future generations. The Snoqualmie Landmarks Commission is part of the King County Historic Preservation Program, further emphasizing the importance of local historical initiatives. This designation aligns with broader efforts to maintain the city's unique identity and historical narrative.
