Seattle Central Waterfront
To realize what is perhaps our single greatest opportunity to create a fresh connection to Puget Sound and a vibrant place for recreation, we must maintain the current design momentum, focus and funding to ensure that the city’s vision is fully executed.
Our Priorities for Seattle Central Waterfront
- Build a great surface-level public space on the central waterfront
- Support the City’s ongoing design process
- Ensure sufficient funding to implement waterfront improvements
Projects
AIA Seattle and its members have been active in every phase of the viaduct removal and waterfront design process.
