Port of Bellingham calls for Waterfront District development plans

Come summer, we might have a better idea of the potential that developers see in Bellingham’s future Waterfront District.
The Port of Bellingham issued a “request for proposals” on Wednesday, May 15, for a 10.8-acre portion of the central waterfront property formerly home to a Georgia Pacific pulp and paper mill.The request offers three parcels of land for redevelopment proposals near Bellingham’s current downtown district that are expected to be zoned for mixed use in a subarea plan still under consideration by port officials and planners with the city of Bellingham.
