The Mercer brothers often rowed between the island and Seattle to pick berries, hunt, and fish. Those brothers, <a href="/wiki/Thomas_Mercer" title="Thomas Mercer">Thomas Mercer</a> and <a href="/wiki/Asa_Mercer" title="Asa Mercer">Asa Mercer</a>, were members of the Mercer family of <a href="/wiki/Virginia" title="Virginia">Virginia</a>. The first large settlement, East Seattle, was toward the northwest side of the island—near the McGilvara neighborhood. During 1889, a <a href="/wiki/C.C._Calkins" title="C.C. Calkins">C.C. Calkins</a> built a large and gilded resort, the Calkins Hotel. The hotel was reached via <a href="/wiki/Steamboats_of_Lake_Washington" class="mw-redirect" title="Steamboats of Lake Washington">steamboat</a> between <a href="/wiki/Madison_Park_(Seattle)" title="Madison Park (Seattle)">Madison Park</a>, <a href="/wiki/Leschi_Park" title="Leschi Park">Leschi Park</a>, and the <a href="/wiki/Eastside_(King_County,_Washington)" title="Eastside (King County, Washington)">Eastside</a>. Guests included President <a href="/wiki/Benjamin_Harrison" title="Benjamin Harrison">Benjamin Harrison</a>, of 1901, amongst other well-to-do dignitaries from Seattle to the East Coast of the United States. Burned by a mysterious fire, the hotel was razed during 1908. </p><p>The Calkins Landing continued service and presumably aided the establishment of a more permanent population. A denser urban community with business district developed toward the central northern island between the McGilvra neighborhood and Luther Burbank Park. This community now composes the majority of the island's crest through the Middle Island neighborhood. </p><p>In 1923, the <a href="/wiki/East_Channel_Bridge" title="East Channel Bridge">East Channel Bridge</a> was built to connect the island with <a href="/wiki/Bellevue,_Washington" title="Bellevue, Washington">Bellevue</a>. In 1930, <a href="/wiki/George_Lightfoot" title="George Lightfoot">George W. Lightfoot</a> requested a bridge between Mercer Island and Seattle. The <a href="/wiki/Lacey_V._Murrow_Memorial_Bridge" title="Lacey V. Murrow Memorial Bridge">Lacey V. Murrow Memorial Bridge</a>, currently the second longest <a href="/wiki/Pontoon_bridge" title="Pontoon bridge">floating bridge</a> in the world, was built and opened in 1940. In 1989, a second bridge, the <a href="/wiki/Homer_M._Hadley_Memorial_Bridge" title="Homer M. Hadley Memorial Bridge">Homer M. Hadley Memorial Bridge</a>, was built parallel to the Lacey V. Murrow Memorial Bridge. The East Channel Bridge, Lacey V. Murrow Memorial Bridge, and Homer M. Hadley Memorial Bridge, carry Interstate 90 from Seattle, across Mercer Island, and into Bellevue. </p><p>The City of Mercer Island was incorporated from East Seattle on July 5, 1960, and comprised all the island minus the 70-acre (280,000 m<sup>2</sup>) business district. Just over one month later, August 9, the Town of Mercer Island was incorporated from that business district. The two aforementioned municipalities merged as the City of Mercer Island on May 19, 1970. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Geography">Geography</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Mercer_Island,_Washington&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Geography"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:I-90_bridge_across_Lake_Washington_in_Seattle.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/14/I-90_bridge_across_Lake_Washington_in_Seattle.jpg/220px-I-90_bridge_across_Lake_Washington_in_Seattle.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/14/I-90_bridge_across_Lake_Washington_in_Seattle.jpg/330px-I-90_bridge_across_Lake_Washington_in_Seattle.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/14/I-90_bridge_across_Lake_Washington_in_Seattle.jpg/440px-I-90_bridge_across_Lake_Washington_in_Seattle.jpg 2x" data-file-width="3264" data-file-height="2448" /></a><figcaption>Aerial view of the Interstate 90 floating bridge connecting Seattle and the northern part of Mercer Island</figcaption></figure> <p>Mercer Island City Hall was located at <span class="geo-inline"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1156832818"><span class="plainlinks nourlexpansion"><a class="external text" href="https://geohack.toolforge.org/geohack.php?pagename=Mercer_Island,_Washington&params=47_34_14_N_122_13_19_W_type:city"><span class="geo-default"><span class="geo-dms" title="Maps, aerial photos, and other data for this location"><span class="latitude">47°34′14″N</span> <span class="longitude">122°13′19″W</span></span></span><span class="geo-multi-punct"> / </span><span class="geo-nondefault"><span class="geo-dec" title="Maps, aerial photos, and other data for this location">47.57056°N 122.22194°W</span><span style="display:none"> / <span class="geo">47.57056; -122.22194</span></span></span></a></span></span> (47.5706548, -122.2220673),<sup id="cite_ref-gnis_3-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-gnis-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> until it was closed in April 2023 after <a href="/wiki/Asbestos" title="Asbestos">asbestos</a> was discovered in the <a href="/wiki/Heating,_ventilation,_and_air_conditioning" title="Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning">heating, ventilation, and air conditioning</a> system.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> As of August 2024, the city does not have a plan for a new building.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The peak elevation in the city is about 335 feet (102 m), near the center of the island.<sup id="cite_ref-MIElevation_11-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-MIElevation-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>According to the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Census_Bureau" title="United States Census Bureau">United States Census Bureau</a>, the city has a total area of 12.90 square miles (33.41 km<sup>2</sup>), of which 6.38 square miles (16.52 km<sup>2</sup>) are land and 6.52 square miles (16.89 km<sup>2</sup>) are water.<sup id="cite_ref-CenPopGazetteer2023_2-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-CenPopGazetteer2023-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The <a href="/wiki/ZIP_Code" title="ZIP Code">ZIP Code</a> 98040 is assigned to Mercer Island.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Mercer Island is the most populated island in a lake in the US.<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup class="noprint Inline-Template" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources" title="Wikipedia:Reliable sources"><span title="The material near this tag may rely on an unreliable source.
