SWIFT Center — Attraction in Sedro-Woolley

Went on a tour at the old hospital portion (Northern State). Very intriguing place, given the history of what it was. Learned some new things about the history. LOVE that our guide, expressed they (Port of Skagit) are bringing this place "back to life", following through, taking the steps, researching, to preserve this piece of history. Let alone, allowing those intrigued, (some low key obsesed) the ability to satisfy their curiosity! There was a couple up from Shelton (WA) for this tour. The tickets sold out in (I heard) 30 or so minutes.

Thank you! Thank you for putting the time & investing in this place!!! It was a HUGE part of this...

Swift Center has an historic portion, site of former state mental hospital that operated from early 1900s until 1973. Great walking area that leads to old farmstead where patients worked to produce food for this institution. Unfortunately, vandalism has marred this once...

Best place to stay when you finally get...
