Bellingham council approves resolution to delay Granary demolition

City Council has unanimously approved a resolution calling on the Port of Bellingham to seek redevelopment proposals before they move ahead to demolish the Granary Building on the waterfront.

Port commissioners have yet to approve the demolition, but port staffers have been trying to convince them that the building would be too costly to restore and needs to be torn down to clear the way for waterfront redevelopment.
