SNOQUALMIE MILL FOR ALL ENVIRONMENTAL ENHANCEMENT
Unlocks 166 acres of outdoor space after cleanup
The environmental cleanup of what is 250 acres of underutilized and inaccessible space will ensure that the site will continue to be a benefit to the community and the environment for the next 100 years.
Redevelopment is the solution to reverse ecological damage
