They’re here!
…to transport passengers on an Alaskan getaway. The cruise ships are great for Seattle tourism plus local businesses and also treat Magnolians to a moving landscape from their very own yards. Some locals are upset with more Interbay traffic and up & down the Magnolia bridge. Others close to the pier complain of loud music and pollution created by the big boats, but mostly the cruise ships contribute to Magnolia views. One can’t deny the ‘cool factor’ when the ships announce departure from Puget Sound with the deep bellow of the horns.
Seattle sunsets with 202 scheduled cruise ships to set sail will create countless images and motion for folks to follow.
It’s estimated that each boat contributes $2 Million to the local economy and about 4,300 jobs to people around the Pacific Northwest. Many photographers, including ones within our real estate industry, capture ship traffic to add visual interest to pictures posted on our property listings. A Magnolia View Home demands a premium price. Even a peek a boo view out of the corner of a room is desirable by buyers. There are many different types of Magnolia views. When creating listings I tag the type of view it has because it’s an important feature of the property. Whether the home has East, West and or Western exposure are all details to share with readers.
