I just reported on the Genealogy of a house, when The Herald came out with a whole big spreak in the Local Section on the Heritage Park story. Big 9.5 x 7 " PIX captioned Highlights of the new Heritage Park that will open in March in Lynnwood include a trolley car (left) that was the last to run on the old Interurban Rail Line and the historic Wickers Building (right), built 1919 as the first rail ticket station, mercantile and post office. It will now be a visitors information center. The Wickers Building is the wainscotted bldg which was regarded as the Interurban Depot when the Interurban went thru Alderwood Manor - it always stopped for passengers getting on or off, and especially items of goods either being unloaded or loaded for further transportation. Here's what the Herald had to say about this Landmark restored bldg project which you will enjoy visiting among your ventures in this "neck of the woods" even tho' most of the trees have long gone: Ref. The HERALD, Everett, WA. Date: Tues Jan 6, 2004 Section: Local Section front page. Site: http://www.heraldnet.com/about Article: New park embraces history By Victor Balta, Herald Writer, PIX by Dan Bates/The Herald Lynnwood's nearly finished Heritage Park pays tribute to the Interurban Rail Line and Alderwood Manor's farming past. An Insert: Buy a brick, help the park - Info as to where inscribed bricks will be placed in the Heritage Park plaza sources. A 2nd PIX appears - a front on view of the Wickersl Bldg -landmark for Alderwood Manor of old which has been regrettably absorbed by the City of Lynnwood. (The regrettably is my own personal feeling as I loved the sound of and being a part of "Adlerwood Manor" where I rented and lived until it bacame absorbed by the City of Lynnwood, a younger upstart that grew in the region - LOL!!!!) I am anxious to visit the site and to contribute to the Sno-Isle Gen Library of many items that I hope will be useful to future generations of Gen Bugs and seekers of history and Info. How I recall that quaint Wickers Bldg as we stopped either going from Seattle to Everett or Everett to Seattle when I was age 6 to 10 or so - I was seeing history as I marveled at what I saw along the way on the INTERURBAN. Wish we had it TODAY ! Carroll in Snohomish * * * 30 * * * COMMENT:
