The Shoreline Interurban Trailhead gateway has been given renewed life thanks to the efforts of the maintenance department of the Shoreline Parks, Recreation and Cultural Services.

Last week crews cleared overgrown vegetation, pulled weeds that had grown between pavers, power washed the structure and sign, removing years of accumulated moss and dirt from the busy roadway.

The structure, which replicates a station on the Interurban train route, serves as a welcome to Shoreline's portion of the Interurban Trail that extends from downtown Everett to the Ballard neighborhood in Seattle.

It is located near the corner of Meridian Ave N and NE 205th by Ballinger Commons.
