Edmonds is the oldest incorporated city in Snohomish County founded in 1890 by Logger George Brackett, who named the city after Vermont Sen. George Franklin Edmunds or Point Edmund, named by Charles Wilkes in 1841 and later changed to Point Edwards. Brackett came to the future site of Edmonds while paddling a canoe north of Seattle, searching for timber. When a gust of wind hit his canoe, Brackett beached in a location later called "Brackett's Landing".
The town was named Edmonds in 1884, but was not incorporated until 1890 as an official “village fourth class” of Snohomish County. In that same year, Brackett sold 455 acres (1.84 km2) to the Minneapolis Realty and Investment Company. The town was plotted and a wharf was added along the waterfront. Modest houses and commercial structures sprouted up with a row of shingle mills dominating the cityscape.
In 1891, the Great Northern Railroad came through and early settlers and investors grew hopeful that Edmonds would prosper. Unfortunately, the Panic of 1893 created business setbacks and the town owners foreclosed. Brackett reclaimed his town and along with other early settlers continued to develop its infrastructure. By 1900 there was regular passenger ferry service available by the steam-powered “mosquito fleet” of private ferryboats from Edmonds to Seattle.
Edmonds suffered major fires in 1909 and 1928, and many buildings were lost. The first car arrived in Edmonds in 1911. As more roads were established, Edmonds experienced steady growth along with commercial and residential development.

The settlement of Ephrata is quite recent, until 1886, just three years before Washington attained statehood. Frank Beezley,a horse rancher was the first to settle, thus the area was known as Beezley Springs. As the climate and topography were not promising for settlement growth, until several federal congressional actions, including the Northern Pacific Land Grant Act, the Homestead Act and Desert Claims Act, encouraged the settlement of this semi-arid desert.
Ephrata was incorporated on June 21, 1909 and the county seat for the newly created Grant County and generally believed that the city was named Ephrata by a man who worked for the Great Northern Railroad.
At the turn of the century great herds of wild horses that roamed the land, as Horse trading was an important element of the local economy, served as the staging area for the horse round-ups. The last "Grand Horse Round-up" was held in Ephrata in 1906, then developed as a trade and service center for cattle and sheep ranches in the area until the construction of the Columbia Basin Reclamation Project.

Everett started in 1861 when Dennis Brigham built a cabin on a 160-acre claim on the shore of Port Gardner Bay.
In 1890, Henry Hewitt along with Charles L. Colby and Colgate Hoyt founded the Everett Land Company for the purpose of building the city and officially incorporated on May 4, 1893, the year the Great Northern Railroad came to the town.
Everett hoped that James J. Hill owner of Great Northern Railroad would make the town the terminus of his railroad. However railroad continued along the shoreline of Puget Sound to Seattle. Railroads and mines played an important part in Everett's future as ore was smelted, then sawmilling and port activity began to develop, along with shipbuilding as a dozen steam riverboats were built for the Yukon gold rush.
Everett was the place where several survivors of the Bellingham riots settled, until they were beaten and forcefully evicted by a mob on November 5, 1907. Everett also was the site of the Everett Massacre of 1916 which was an armed confrontation between a mob led by local Sheriff Donald McRae and IWW members.
Everett streets are named after each of the three founders, Colby Avenue, Hoyt Avenue, Hewitt Avenue and Bond Street named for Judge Hiram Bond, President of the Everett & Monte Cristo Railroad.

Leavenworth was officially incorporated on September 5, 1906. A small timber community, was located across the Wenatchee River from Icicle and was named Leavenworth the same year the rail construction began. Captain Charles Leavenworth, president of the Okanogan Investment Company, purchased the land in the present-day downtown and laid the streets parallel to the new railroad tracks. Lafayette Lamb and his brother, Chauncery Lamb arrived in 1903 from Iowa to build the second largest sawmill in Washington state.
Leavenworth struggled until 1962, when the "Project LIFE", known as "Leavenworth Improvement For Everyone Committee" was formed to transform the city into a "Bavarian village" to revitalize its economy. Leavenworth's annual Oktoberfest celebration is claimed to be one of the most attended in the world outside Munich, Germany. Leavenworth's transformation into a theme town was inspired by, and assisted by Solvang, California.
Leavenworth is home to the Leavenworth Nutcracker Museum, which opened in 1995 and contains more than 5,000 nutcrackers dating from prehistoric to modern.

The City is located fork of the Cowlitz and Columbia Rivers, was first settled in the early 1850s and remained sparsely populated for nearly 60 years, consisting mostly of farmland and wilderness. In 1918, Robert A. Long decided to move the Long-Bell Lumber Company, to Longview, do to dwindling supplies in Missouri. Then in 1921, Wesley Vandercook decicide to build a mill near the small town of Kelso, Washington.
Kelso, with a population of barely 2,000 would not be able to support the 14,000 men, so Long-Bell Company hired George Kessler, to build the city that would support the two mills that were now planned. Longview was officially incorporated on February 14, 1924 was the only planned city of its magnitude to have ever been conceived of and built entirely with private funds.
A number of prominent buildings in Longview were purchased with Mr. Long's personal funds, including R. A. Long High School, the Longview Public Library, the YMCA building and the Monticello Hotel.

The town first settled by Europeans in 1858 and was the county seat of Snohomish County from 1861 to 1867, then relocated to city of Snohomish. Mukilteo was officially incorporated on May 8, 1947
Point Elliot/Mukilteo becamea fishing village, trading post, and a port-of-entry, witn surrounding wooded hills filled with Douglas fir, cedar and hemlock supported a lumber mill and the town also had a cannery, a brewery, and a gunpowder plant near Powder Mill Gulch. Japanese Gulch provides rail access from the Mukilteo waterfront to the Boeing wide-body plant at Paine Field.
In 1901, the Federal Lighthouse Board decided to put a light and fog signal at Mukilteo was completed in 1906.
1947 there was ferry service to Whidbey Island, a fuel storage facility for the Air Force on the waterfront, and a major rail line for the Great Northern Railroad along the city’s entire waterfront. In 1991, the Harbour Pointe area shift the Town's Commercial Center near the shoreline to new shopping and banking facilities at Harbour Pointe.

Native Americans made this area home for thousands of years, including Squaxin, Nisqually, Puyallup, Chehalis, Suquamish, and Duwamish tribes or the Lushootseed-speaking peoples. Europeans explored area in 1792, when Peter Puget and a crew from the British Vancouver Expedition charted the site. In the 1840s, Edmund Sylvester and Levi Smith jointly claimed the land that now comprises downtown Olympia.
In 1853 Olympia was offically named, by Colonel Isaac N. Ebey, due to its view of the Olympic Mountains and the farthest point on The Oregon Trail. The U.S. Congress established the Customs District of Puget Sound for Washington Territory in 1851, and Olympia became customs house. Puget Sound Mosquito Fleet Steamboats once served area. Today Olympia is State Capital and has become a hub for artists and musicians.

The Lewis and Clark Expedition camped in the Pasco area October 16, 1805 at a site now commemorated by Sacagawea State Park, which was frequented by fur trappers and gold traders. Northern Pacific Railway/BNSF was built near the Columbia River in 1880s, opening trade and bringing many settlers to the area. Pasco named by Virgil Bogue, a construction engineer for the Northern Pacific Railway after Cerro de Pasco, a city in the Peruvian Andes, where he had helped build a railroad. Pasco was a small railroad town, but the completion of the Grand Coulee Dam in 1941 brought irrigation and agriculture to the area making it a larger railway town. Pasco was officially incorporated on September 3, 1891.
The presence of the Hanford Nuclear Site, provided the Tri-Cities/Richland-Kennewick-Pasco area grew rapidly from the 1940-1950s, most of the population influx resided in Richland and Kennewick, as Pasco remained primarily driven by the agricultural industry, and Pasco rail yards.
In the 1990s, developers purchased large farm in Pasco for residential and commercial development, resulted in growth in the city's retail and tourism industries. The new development is referred to as "West Pasco", distinguishing it from the older East Town

Between 1830 and 1840 Native Americans Settlement was discovered in the Puyallup Valley, then European settelers arrived in the 1850s. In 1877, Ezra Meeker platted a townsite and named it Puyallup after the local Puyallup Indian Tribes. By the 1880s Puyallup had become a major hop growing region, as the town grew rapidly throughout the 1880s being incorporated in 1890, with Ezra Meeker the first mayor. During the 20th Century the valley with the growth of nearby Tacoma and the Interurban rail lines, gave way to Western Washington Fairgrounds development giving local farmers a place to show off their crops and livestock. During the early part of World War II the fairgrounds were home to over 7,000 Japanese-American residents, known as Camp Harmony.

Historically the railways and streetcars once dominated its transportation system have largely been replaced with an extensive bus route and the city's outward growth has caused fossil fuel vehicle to become the mode of transportation.
Seattle is ranked as one of the most fossil fuel congested cities in the United States, however, recent efforts has begun to reverse this trend with plans for an inner-city streetcar network and a regional light rail system. In addition Seattle is also serviced by two commuter rail routes connecting it to many of its more distant suburbs, and a 16 mile light rail line between Downtown Seattle and Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.

Library
Skykomish from the 1890s to 1974, was a maintenance and fueling station for the Great Northern Railway and western terminus for electric operations (1909-56) on the Cascade Tunnel route to Wenatchee. Careless waste disposal practices common during that era resulted in the contamination of its soil and groundwater seeping oil and heavy metals in Skykomish River. In the mid-1980s, BNSF and the Washington State Department of Ecology began remediation discussions and in 2006, agreed to a plan to clean up the area over a three-year period. This $50 million project will involve massive excavations to removing the contaminated soil and the rebuilding of a levee. Many of Skykomish's historical buildings will have to be moved and returned to new foundation. Located in Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest,near Deception Falls on the Skykomish River, founded as railroad town and officially incorporated on June 5, 1909.

The first Native Americans arrived between twelve to eight thousand years ago and were hunter-gatherer societies that lived off the plentiful game in the area. Over time the forests in the area began to thin out, Spokane Tribe became more dependent upon roots, berries and fish settled in the region, or descendants of tribes from the Great Plains. The Northwest Fur Company sent two white fur trappers west of the Rocky Mountains to search for fur, became the first two white men met by the Spokane tribe, who believed them to be Sama/sacred, and set the trappers up in the Colville River valley for the winter. Canadian David Thompson explored the Spokane area and began European settlement with the westward expansion and establishment of the North West Company’s Spokane House in 1810.
Spokane House was the first long-term European settlement in Washington and the center of the fur trade between the Rockies and the Cascades. In the late 1800s, gold and silver were discovered to be one of the most productive mining districts in North America. "Spokan Falls" was settled in 1871 and officially incorporated as City of Spokane in 1881, which name comes from the Native American Tribe known as the Spokane, which means "Children of the Sun" in Salish. Spokane is nick named "Lilac City", after the flowers that have flourished since their introduction to the area in the early 20th century. Completion of the Northern Pacific Railway in 1881 brought major settlement to the Spokane area and became known as "Inland Empire".
