Mercer
Island is a
city which encompasses an entire island in Lake
Washington in the greater Seattle Metropolitan area. The island is largely residential with
only a few businesses located on the island. Mercer
Island is located at I-90 Exit 7.
It sounds
like it must be a sleepy little berg and would be if you had to take a
ferry to it like most islands in Washington
State.
Mercer Island, unlike other islands, has
Interstate-90 running right through the northern end of the island. The Lake
Washington Floating Bridge
links Mercer Island to Seattle.
So this sleepy residential community has one of the loudest noise
generators running through it, Interstate-90. In recent years much of I-90 has had a
concrete lid noise reduction system put over it to make life on the island
quieter.
In the map at the left mercer is located in Lake
Washington, east of Seattle.
