Redmond: SR 520 at MP 9.7: NE 36th St
Redmond has served as a farming and logging centre on Seattle’s Eastside since the late 19th century. Set along the Sammamish River, the city lies between Lake Washington and Lake Sammamish, in an urban area edged by wooded corridors and residential neighbourhoods. State Route 520 is a major east–west link, carrying traffic from Redmond towards Seattle across Lake Washington. Redmond became closely associated with technology after Microsoft moved its headquarters here in 1986; the company’s campus remains one of the city’s defining institutions. The historic downtown around Cleveland Street preserves the earlier commercial core, while riverside trails connect local parkland with the regional trail network.

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.
