Bellingham has more older homes and Victorian neighborhoods compared to Everett. A growth spurt in the 1920s left the city with many substantial architectural buildings downtown. A lunch presentation on new historic districts and Bellingham's cultural history will be at the iconic Old City Hall at the Whatcom Museum.
