Birch Bay Vogt Library
Community Matters. In order to best support our local community Birch Bay Realty will donate five percent (5%) of our commissions to support the Birch Bay Library project. For the average house in the Birch Bay Area, we would be donating $500+ per listing or purchase.
We have a unique opportunity here in Birch Bay to have an amazing library right on the Beach. Whatcom County Library purchased the land where the historic Vogt house is currently located on 7968 Birch Bay Drive.
When the existing house was purchased in 2017, it was thought they would be able to keep the house and use it as a part of the Library. Unfortunately the house is not sound and would have to be rebuilt. After many designs where considered, Zervas Architects of Bellingham was brought in to create the current design modeled after the existing Vogt house.
Libraries are more than just books. They are community centers, meeting places, research venues and quiet places. Libraries provide resources to community members and businesses in the area. The Friends of the Birch Bay Library has even mentioned having beach toys to check out for people who came to Birch Bay and forgot their bucket and shovel.
Libraries Matter. Community Matters. Birch Bay Matters. We are going to do our part to make the Birch Bay Vogt Library a reality.
