Yarrow Point was split from the rest of Bellevue along with Hunts Point when the 520 Bridge was completed in 1963. I still remember paying the toll to cross…in the 1960s and 1970s!
Yarrow Point was originally the largest holly farm in the United States. Much of the beauty and established landscaping can be attributed to the Yarrow Garden Club, established in 1948.
In 1976, our country's bicentennial, Yarrow Point hosted an amazing 4th of July celebration that is its largest annual event.
