From Logging Camp to Diverse City

Named after David C. Bothell, who platted the first acreage to begin a logging operation in 1889, the City of Bothell was incorporated in 1909. Cedar was imported to Bothell along a 7-mile flume via the Sammamish River, originally called Squak Slough. The river route was the only way for lumber and produce to reach the cities of Bothell, Woodinville, Redmond, and Issaquah.

Recreation and Community Life

The former hub of the Bothell shipping area is now known as Bothell Landing, home to a restful city park along the Sammamish River. Along the river, a few Bothell homes with boat slips have direct access to Lake Washington and the Puget Sound. Central to the park is an outdoor arena used for local entertainment, as well the Sammamish River Trail, a popular 10-mile walking and biking route connecting to the Burke-Gilman Trail. With a diverse population of more than 30,000, the City of Bothell sponsors

numerous community events to offer a small-town feel, such as the annual Fourth of July Parade, or the summer outdoor concert series at Bothell Landing. After opening in October 2015, one of Bothell's greatest destinations is the hotel, restaurants and other attractions that belong to the McMenamins Anderson School.
