When people talk about Bremerton, they often talk about what surrounds it-the ferries, the water, the mountains. They place it in the past-how it boomed in WWII, or give a nod to the future-"it has so much potential!"But what about the city itself, today? Bremerton has a unique built environment-a compact downtown with art-deco flourishes, surrounded by quirky neighborhoods chock-full of tiny cottage homes arranged chaotically along alleyways.When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, I filled my time by walking about the city photographing the buildings that caught my eye. This journal is the result of those walks, accompanied by essays and reflections from local writers. The goal is to capture the spirit of Bremerton - not the spirit of its historical heyday or it's imagined future, but as it exists today.
