Published by the Department of the Navy alongside local author Dennis Stuhaug, Naval Station Puget Sound at Sand Point chronicles the fascinating military and aviation heritage of Seattle’s historic waterfront base. The book details the facility's evolution from a vital 1920s naval air station—famous as a key stop for the 1924 round-the-world flight—into a crucial World War II training and logistics hub. Through archival photographs and military records, the text captures how the installation served as a dynamic nexus between civilian urban life and naval defense along Lake Washington. A keen insight drawn from the work is how the transformation of military bases into public parks reflects the shifting priorities of modern cities; as Sand Point was decommissioned and turned into Magnuson Park, it demonstrated how post-industrial urban spaces are reclaimed to heal the ecological and social splits left behind by military-industrial expansion.
