About Driftwood Holdings LLC

The old mill waterfront along Bellingham Bay has spent the last few decades turning from pulp yard back into boardwalk, and Driftwood Holdings works the properties along that stretch with an eye for what the place used to be as much as what it's becoming. A snowfall along the shoreline path near Boulevard Park behaves differently than snow inland; salt air keeps it heavy and wet, and it clings to boardwalk planks in a way that needs clearing before the boards turn slick. The crew treats each redeveloped lot the way they'd treat any renovation, patient, board by board, nothing torn up in the process. A walkway that stays sound and passable through a rare cold snap is one more small piece of the waterfront's second life holding together.
