Bainbridge Island, Washington
Kitsap County · Population 24,825 · Card no. 1005
The whole island is one city, a ferry ride from downtown Seattle, which is why it looks the way it does.
- Port Blakely on the island's south end once had one of the largest sawmills in the world.
- The first Japanese Americans forcibly removed under Executive Order 9066 in 1942 were taken from Bainbridge, and a memorial at Eagledale marks the spot.
- The island incorporated as a single city in 1991.
