Current Market Conditions: As the weather continues to improve, look for increased Buyer activity, especially for waterfront and view properties. Final plans are still under review for the new Olympic View Marina (formerly Seabeck Marina), and work will hopefully commence sometime mid-summer 2007. This should help to encourage continued positive growth and improved property values in the Seabeck area. Meaningful progress is being made in the renovation and resurgence of Downtown Bremerton, especially along the waterfront. As anticipated, the opening of Anthony's Seafood Restaurant has become one of the primary flagships for the longterm success of this project.
