History
Built in 1919, the Wickers Building was the first general store and post office on North Trunk West Road in Alderwood Manor (now 196th St. SW), and a familiar landmark halfway between Seattle and Everett to passengers on the Interurban. The City rescued the building from demolition and relocated it to Heritage Park in 2003. The Tudor Revival-style building has been carefully restored to preserve its distinctive features. The Wickers Building is listed on the Washington State Heritage Register and the City of Lynnwood Register of Historic Landmarks. Heritage exhibits throughout the park tell stories of life in early Alderwood Manor, and its historic structures have been renovated and repurposed as community resource facilities including the: Wickers Museum in the Wickers Building Heritage Resource Center in the Superintendent's Cottage Sno-Isle Genealogy Library in the Humble House Restored Interurban Trolley Car #55
