Redmond: SR 520 at MP 12.8 - Way
Redmond has served as a farming and logging community in Washington’s Sammamish Valley since the late 19th century. Today it is a major Eastside employment centre, best known as the home of Microsoft’s corporate headquarters. The Sammamish River runs through the city from Lake Sammamish toward Lake Washington. State Route 520 links Redmond with Seattle across Lake Washington, while Redmond Way follows State Route 202 toward the Snoqualmie Valley. This junction belongs to a city shaped by technology campuses, residential neighbourhoods and the wooded lowlands of King County. Redmond’s shift from resource industries to technology has made it a key part of the Seattle metropolitan area.

Among the cities of Washington, Redmond stands out as the longtime headquarters of Microsoft and a major center of the Seattle-area technology industry. The Sammamish River passes through the city, accompanied by a riverside trail that links Redmond with communities farther north on the Eastside. Redmond grew from a small settlement shaped by timber and farming, and was incorporated in 1912; today, its downtown combines public spaces, restaurants and development around the Redmond Technology Station. Marymoor Park, beside the river, adds extensive open land and recreation facilities at the city’s southern edge.

Washington’s terrain runs from Pacific coastal lowlands in the west to the dry Columbia Plateau in the east, with the Cascade Range creating a marked climatic divide. Central Washington lies on the plateau side of the Cascades, where the Columbia River has cut broad valleys and irrigation supports orchards and vineyards. The state also includes Puget Sound, the intricate marine inlet around Seattle, and the volcanic cone of Mount Rainier. Seattle’s Space Needle, built for the 1962 World’s Fair, remains one of its most recognisable landmarks. Move on to other webcams in the region to compare landscapes and settings around Washington.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
