History
Navy Yard City was established in 1909 and resisted several attempts at annexation from the City of Bremerton, which now surrounds the unincorporated community.
In late 1932, the West Side Improvement Club was established in the community, using the motto "A BIGGER AND BETTER NEIGHBORHOOD". The club first sought out to improve the local roads and utilities, with a particular focus on connecting more homes to water lines. In June 1933, the club purchased 18 lots to build a clubhouse, as current meetings were being held in the local elementary school or the Bremerton Booster Clubhouse. Ground was broken in the Spring of 1934, and the clubhouse was finished in June 1937. Built by volunteers and the Works Progress Administration, the large clubhouse and grounds included a playfield and event hall. During World War II, the clubhouse became the regimental headquarters for the Army's 202nd Coast Artillery, protecting the Navy installations in the area. The clubhouse still stands today, with regular events such as bingo and potlucks, along with the regularly scheduled club meetings.
