Port Townsend WA HomesFew homes have more history than Port Townsend WA Homes. In 1976, the Downtown waterfront and parts of Uptown were designated a national historic district. Later, Fort Worden (now part of Fort Worden State Park) and the City of Port Townsend were designated national landmarks. The city is further recognized as one of only three Victorian seaports on the National Register of Historic Places. The Bell Tower on the bluff above downtown is the only known tower of its type in the United States. It was used from 1890 to the 1940s to call volunteer firefighters. It was restored in 2003 by the Jefferson County Historical Society. These little peices of history are enjoyed by owners of Port Townsend WA Homes every day! |
