Historical or Biographical Note WAWONA was built in the Bendixsen yard at Fairhaven, California in 1897 for the Dolbeer & Carson Luber Company of Eureka, California. She was entirely constructed of Douglas Fur and the largest three-masted schooner ever built on the West coast. The WAWONA hauled lumber from 1897 to 1914; beginning in 1914 she entered the Bearing Sea as a cod-fishing vessel. During World War II she was chartered by the U.S. Army and dismasted to serve as a barge in Puget Sound. Following the war she was remasted and returned to the Alaska cod fisheries. She was retired from fishing in 1947. She was purchased by the Northwest Seaport in 1964. WAWONA is the first vessel to be recognized on the National Register of Historic Places in 1970. In 1985, the National Park Service, working with the National Trust for Historic Preservation and the Northwest Seaport recorded her lines. She was berthed at South Lake Union Park in Seattle adjacent to the Center for Wooden Boats until 2009 when she was dismantled. Wawona was the sister ship to San Francisco A guide to the Wawona HDC1271 (SAFR 20610) 2 (schooner) restoration project report, 1975-1982 Maritime National Historical Park's lumber schooner, the C.A.

  • Parks and Points of Interest on Lake Union 1. Steam Plant Public
    Parks and Points of Interest on Lake Union 1. Steam Plant Public Dock. This floating dock was built and dedicated to public use by Zymogenetics as a part of its 1993 redevelopment of the 1917 Lake Union Steam Plant, a historic landmark. The public dock lies in the submerged portion of the Fairview Avenue right-of-way, providing a water-level walking alternative to the Fairview Avenue trestle. Just offshore is one of Lake Union's last large pieces of open shoreline, much of it in State Waterway 8; additional submerged parcels owned by Seattle City Light on either side of the waterway are in jeopardy of being sold. The wooden pier, once used to unload coal and then fuel oil, is now favored by large birds, including cormorants, grebes, and an occasional great blue heron and bald eagle. To help in the effort to keep this section of the lake open, call 329-0429. 2. Lake Union Dry Dock. This 12 acre complex--entirely over water--is one of the largest industrial sites near downtown, and probably the oldest continuously operating marine business in the city. Once a builder of Coast Guard cutters, tuna clippers, pleasure yachts, and even some large canoes and whale boats (and manufacturer of the first waterskis in the U.S.), the company is now a leader in ship repair. None other has as many floating drydocks that are certified by the U.S. Navy. 3. Propeller Park (proposed). Here at the Garfield streetend and State Waterway 9 is proposed a park with 250 feet of shoreline and views of the impressive marine industrial complex offshore.
