In Snohomish, Top It Yogurt Shoppe has become a captivating homage to the Titanic, spearheaded by owner Ken Coman, who unveiled a life-sized replica of the ship's hull in January 2025. Standing 13 feet tall and 24 feet long, the model features 1,015 intricately crafted 3-D printed rivets and portholes made by the same firm that supplied the originals for the Titanic.
