Renton is a Seattle-area city of about 105,000–107,000 people on the southeast shore of Lake Washington, incorporated in 1901 after a coal-mining boom and now best known for Boeing’s 737/P-8 assembly plant and the Seattle Seahawks’ waterfront headquarters (VMAC). The compact centre sits at the mouth of the Cedar River, with lakeside green space at Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park and easy walks and rides along the 17-mile Cedar River Trail; shopping and dining cluster at The Landing. Getting around is straightforward via I-405/SR-167, frequent King County Metro service (including RapidRide F Line linking The Landing, the Renton Transit Center, Southcenter/Tukwila and Burien), and quick access to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.
