East Bay Development
The Port of Olympia is hoping to develop a large piece of property on the eastern edge of the Port Peninsula. It would house a new Children’s Museum, a new administrative building and education center for the LOTT Wastewater Treatment Facility, and possibly a hotel and office buildings. But the peninsula lies at a low elevation, and the city predicts it will be the area most affected by sea level rise. Some environmentalists question whether large-scale new development on the peninsula is prudent. Courtesy LOTT Alliance.
