Thanks to all those who helped make this event such a memorable one! Over 200 people gathered in front of the Alki Homestead/Fir Lodge in West Seattle on July 4th to support the “This Place Matters” campaign. Co-sponsors included the Southwest Seattle Historical Society, Historic Seattle, Washington Trust for Historic Preservation and 4Culture. Although the photo shoot is over, the effort to preserve the Homestead just beginning! For updates and announcements, or to get involved, visit the Southwest Seattle Historical Society’s blog.

Thanks for helping with the fight to save this cozy landmark. I wish the Cozy Blog had known about the “This Place Matters” photo shoot—we would have been there! We’ll help get the word out any time 4Culture is rallying the troops to preserve our county’s cozy treasures. Keep up the good work.
